For a richer flavor, use a combination of sweet and hot Italian sausage. If you prefer a softer dressing, add an additional 1/4 cup of chicken broth. This dressing can be prepared ahead of time and reheated before serving. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Consider adding other vegetables like mushrooms or carrots for added texture and flavor. Toasting the bread cubes before adding them to the Instant Pot will prevent the dressing from becoming too soggy.
