  3. Bake for about 2 to 3 hours, or until automatic timer popper pops from the breast. Once the timer pops, remove the foil wrap and cook an additional 10 to 15 minutes until turkey skin is golden brown and crisp.

  10. Drain fully cooked sausage on a paper towel and cool slightly. Keep sausage grease in the large frying pan for later use on the almond green beans. Dice cooled sausage into small edible pieces and put in large mixing bowl with fried celery and onion. Once all the fully cooked sausage is diced and added to the fried celery and onion, mix until combined and set aside.
     
  11. Prepare instant stuffing as instructed on the manufactures packaging, this box mix instructs to add 3 cups of water and 8 tablespoons for the two boxes in this recipe. In a large pot bring water and butter to a boil. Once the mixture boils, add the 2 stuffing mixes and stir until fully combined and saturated, cover pot and set aside for 5 minutes and add to large mixing bowl of sausage. Stir until completely combined and set aside.

Strain boiled potatoes and return to large pot. Add 1 stick softened butter and 1/2 cup of sour cream and a dash of salt and pepper to potatoes and using an electric mixer, mix on medium speed until potatoes are whipped smooth and creamy and set aside. If potatoes seem too dry, you may add more sour cream.
