What Makes This Recipe Unique

This dish combines savory sausage and earthy mushrooms for a rich, comforting flavor. The addition of crispy Tater Tots adds a fun twist and satisfying crunch. It’s a great way to elevate traditional stuffing with minimal effort.

Smart Cooking Tips

- Use fresh mushrooms for the best texture and flavor.
- Cook the sausage thoroughly before mixing to ensure it’s evenly browned.
- For extra crispiness, bake the Tater Tots separately before adding them on top.

Step 1

Warm your oven to 375°F. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, crumble the sausage and cook it until it’s nicely browned, which should take about 5 minutes. Then add the chopped onion, mushrooms, and celery to the pan and cook everything together for another 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, sage, and rosemary and let it cook for a couple more minutes before turning off the heat.

Step 2

In a big bowl, whisk the chicken broth, potato flakes, and eggs until everything is well combined. Toss in the sausage mixture, Tater Tots®, and parsley, mixing it all until evenly combined. Pour this mixture into a 9x13-inch glass baking dish.

Step 3

Pop the dish into the oven and bake for around 45 minutes, until the stuffing is cooked through and starting to turn golden on top. For an extra crispy finish, switch your broiler on high and broil the stuffing for about 3 minutes, keeping a close eye so the tots get perfectly crispy but don’t burn. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

Perfect Pairings

Serve alongside roasted turkey or chicken for a hearty meal. It also pairs well with a simple green salad or steamed vegetables to balance the richness. Leftovers can be reheated and enjoyed as a side or a main dish.

Storage Advice

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to keep the Tater Tots crispy. Avoid microwaving if possible, as it can make the topping soggy.
