Minnesota Wild Rice Dressing

Step 1
Prepare instant long grain and wild rice according to package directions.

Step 2
While the rice is cooking, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

Step 3
Place ground pork sausage and ground sage pork sausage in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until evenly brown. Drain, and set aside. Cook and stir celery, onion, mushrooms, and water chestnuts in the skillet until browned and tender. Season with garlic powder.

Step 4
Mix prepared rice, sausage, celery mixture, and eggs in the prepared baking dish. Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until lightly browned.
