  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted, divided

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Coat an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.
     
  2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, saute onion in 1 tablespoon butter 5 to 7 minutes, or until golden. Add sausage and mushrooms and saute 3 to 5 minutes, or until sausage is browned and mushrooms are tender; drain, if necessary, and set aside.
     
  3. In a large bowl, combine chicken broth, stuffing, and almonds, if desired; mix well. Add remaining butter, the sausage mixture, and the egg; mix well. Spoon into prepared baking dish.
