All of you may already have tried something like this, but I tried it in my Ninja Foodi Pressure cooker for the first time and was pleasantly surprised how well it worked.  I am going to share it with you and would welcome any comments when and if you try this recipe.

Ingredients:

1 pound roll of sausage (regular or hot)

1 box stuffing mix (chicken or herbed)

3 cups chicken stock or broth

1/4 stick of unsalted butter (cut up in small pieces)

2 cups of cheese spread evenly on top (a 3-cheese cheddar blend is great)

Instructions:

Saute the roll of sausage in the Ninja Foodi until no longer pink (do not drain).

Stir in 3 cups of chicken stock and 1/4 stick of butter.  Once butter has melted, stir in 1 box of stuffing and stir until well-incorporated.

Turn off Ninja and switch to bake.  With the air crisp lid on, bake for 10 minutes on 350 degrees.  Mid-way cooking (5 minutes), stir dressing to make sure it is absorbing liquid.  After cook time is done, add cheese on top and bake for an additional 5 minutes at 375 degrees or until cheese has thoroughly melted (longer if you want to have a crispier topping).

This is a great recipe to serve as a side dish at Thanksgiving or Christmas (actually at any time).  

Notes:  You can add 1 cup of sweet green peas, 1 cup of diced carrots, and 1 cup of celery just before you add the stock/broth and butter to make this more into a main dish meal. 

I hope you enjoy this and let me know if you try it.  Any suggestions on cook times or additional ingredients you try would be great!

@Yeo1402   Thanks for posting this yummy sounding recipe.  What happens to the sausage?  Does it break up and become incorporated into the dressing?

[Yeo1402]

Yes, as you cook the sausage, you are breaking it up with a spoon to keep it from clumping together, when you add the other ingredients, the sausage incorporates into the dressing.

I hope you like this recipe, it's so easy and a time saver.
