2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread, dried sage, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside.

3. Prepare Onion: In a skillet over medium heat, melt the margarine. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, stirring occasionally. This should take around 5 minutes.

4. Combine Wet Ingredients: Once the onions are soft and translucent, remove the skillet from the heat. Add the milk and egg to the skillet, stirring until well combined.

5. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Using a spatula or spoon, gently fold the ingredients together until evenly combined. Ensure that the bread is well coated with the liquid mixture.

6. Transfer to Casserole Pan: Grease a casserole pan or baking dish with a little margarine or cooking spray. Transfer the stuffing mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly.

7. Bake: Place the casserole pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy, and the stuffing is heated through.

8. Serve: Once baked, remove the stuffing from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with additional dried sage if desired. Serve warm alongside your favorite main dishes.

Tips:

• For extra flavor, consider adding a handful of chopped nuts, such as pecans or walnuts, to the stuffing mixture before baking.
• If you prefer a more pronounced sage flavor, sprinkle additional dried sage on top of the stuffing just before baking.
• This stuffing pairs wonderfully with roasted poultry, such as chicken or turkey, making it a perfect side dish for holiday dinners or special occasions.
• Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
