ingredients

12 ounces fresh sliced button mushrooms (or less depending on how much you like mushrooms.)
1 large green bell pepper, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
¹⁄₂ cup butter or 1/4 cup olive oil, for sauteeing vegetables
1 lb pork sausage (breakfast sage flavored is best)
2 (14 ounce) bags seasoned bread crumbs
4 (14 ounce) cans chicken broth
¹⁄₂ teaspoon dried sage
¹⁄₂ teaspoon luzianne cajun seasoning
salt
pepper

directions

Saute mushrooms, green bell peppers, onion and celery in butter or olive oil until veggies are done or translucent.
Brown sausage, crumbling while browning.
Add sauteed veggies to meat and place in large bowl.
Add 1 bag of bread crumbs to mixture and stir.
Pour 4 cans of chicken broth on top of mixture. You want a moist mixture but not runny or dry. If it seems too moist, add more bread crumbs. I usually use about 1 1/2 bags of seasoned bread crumbs.
Add salt and pepper to taste, add the sage and luzianne cajun seasoning. Luzianne seasoning to gives it a nice spicier taste. Omit if you don't like spice. Its not hot though!
Pour mixture into a 9x13 pan sprayed with oil. Bake at 350 degrees until top is browned, around 30-45 minutes.
