Sausage Dressing

This is the best dressing I have ever had! It's a recipe from a friend that has now become a tradition in our family. (Note: It can be halved)

Sausage Dressing recipe:

1-1/2 bags of seasoned croutons
1 box of Uncle Ben's Wild Rice Mix (cooked)
2 eggs
1 large chopped onion
1 bunch of celery
1 can of sliced waterchestnuts (chop slightly)
1 lb. of Jimmy Dean Pork Sausage
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 cans of chicken broth
1/4 lb. of butter
1 clove of garlic (optional)

Soak the croutons in the chicken broth. Saute the sausage and remove from heat. Saute onion in the butter. Mince and add garlic to that mixture. Add that mixture to the sausage. Chop and saute celery and add to that mixture. Add waterchestnuts and mix. Add beaten eggs and cooked wild rice mix. Combine this mixture to the croutons and either stuff your turkey with it or put it in a casserole dish and cook for 30-45 minutes.
