Potato Stuffing

Here's another recipe using potatoes from Mom and Dad's garden. Bryce and I liked it, but my older three children wouldn't eat it. Erica ate it, though she said "hot, hot" after every bite of sausage. I even used Mild Italian Sausage. The recipe originally called for stuffing a chicken with the potato stuffing, but I didn't have a chicken or feel like stuffing one. So this is just the potato stuffing part.

6 medium red potatoes, cut into 1" cubes
1 pound Italian sausage
1 cup finally chopped onion
1 tablespoon butter
2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water until almost tender; drain and set aside. Cook the sausage in boiling water for 10 minutes; drain. Halve each sausage lengthwise, then cut into 1/2" pieces.
In a large skillet (large is the operative word here)over medium heat, cook potatoes, sausage and onion in butter until sausage is browned and onion is tender. Add herbs and seasonings. Place the stuffing in a greased 2 quart baking dish; cover and bake 45 minutes at 350 degrees.
