Sausage, Apple, and Butternut Squash Stuffing

From A Perfect Paleo Thanksgiving [1] by Brianna Hobbs, Janet Fackrell, and Autumn Fackrell

Paleo Thanksgiving Stuffing

Ingredients

  1. 1 small butternut squash, peeled and diced
    2 apples, peeled and diced
    2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted and divided
    Salt and pepper, to taste
    1/2 pound mild or sweet sausage links
    1 onion, diced
    4 ribs celery, diced
    1 teaspoon fresh sage, chopped to serve

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Toss the butternut squash and apples with one tablespoon coconut oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Spread out a baking sheet, and roast until tender and slightly browned, 20 to 30 minutes depending on how big your dice is.
  3. In a heavy-bottomed skillet, cook the sausages until the casing is crisp and the sausage is cooked through. Remove from pan. Add the diced onion, celery, the rest of the coconut oil, and sauté until very soft and slightly caramelized (about 15 minutes.) Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  4. Slice the sausage links in half lengthwise, and then cut into 1/2 inch pieces to make bite-size half circles.
  5. Combine the roasted squash and apples, caramelized onion and celery, and sausage. Sprinkle with fresh sage, and serve warm.
