Step 1

Start by heating your oven to 375°F. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the sausage, breaking it up as it browns, which should take about 5 minutes. Toss in the onion, mushrooms, and celery, and cook everything together for another 5 minutes until the veggies soften. Stir in the garlic, sage, and rosemary, letting it all cook for a couple more minutes before turning off the heat.

Step 2

In a big bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, potato flakes, and eggs until smooth. Add the sausage and veggie mix, Tater Tots®, and parsley, then stir everything until well combined. Pour this mixture into a 9x13-inch glass baking dish.

Step 3

Pop the dish into the oven and bake for about 45 minutes, until the stuffing is set and golden on top. For an extra crispy finish, switch the broiler on high and broil the dish for around 3 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning. Let it cool slightly before serving and enjoy!
