 “Here’s a super way to savor roast turkey and stuffing without having to cook the
big holiday bird.  The stuffing is hearty, and the meat is juicy and tender.” ~
Aura Lee Johnson Rinse turkey breast and pat dry.
 Place with breast side up in a shallow baking dish.
 Brush with butter. Bake, uncovered, at 325 degrees for 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until
the internal temperature reaches 170 degrees. Cover loosely with foil to prevent
excess browning if necessary. Meanwhile, in a skillet, cook sausage, celery and
onions until the sausage is browned and vegetables are tender; drain.
 Remove from the heat; add all remaining ingredients and mix well. Spoon into a
greased 3-quart casserole.
 Cover and bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour. Serve with sliced turkey.
