Johanna’S Sausage & Wild Rice Dressing

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350.

2. 2

   Cook rice according to directions. If using a packaged rice mix, do not add seasoning packet.

3. 3

   Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large skillet and reserve the drippings. Remove bacon and save for another use.

4. 4

   Saute the onion, celery, mushrooms, and sausage in the bacon drippings. Stir frequently to keep meat in small pieces (a potato masher works great).

5. 5

   Simmer about 20 minutes. Drain the grease.

6. 6

   Add cooked rice, sherry, and pecan pieces to sausage mixture and stir to coat.

7. 7

   Spray a 2-quart casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray, and spoon rice mixture into the dish.

8. 8

   Arrange 8-10 pecan halves on top for garnish. Bake uncovered at 350 for 30-35 minutes. Great with your favorite cranberry sauce!
