This recipe shows the tremendous versatility of using WildCheff
Maple Sausage Blend and coupling it with a sumptous grilled flatbread! This blend is so flavorful, and can be used to create
maple sausage for breakfast, appetizer and dinner recipes - using any type of ground organic meat; chicken, turkey, pork,
as well as wild or farm-raised game meat.

Ingredients 1/2 lb of WildCheff
Maple Sausage (made by combining ½ lb of any organic meat with 1 heaping tablespoon of WildCheff
Maple Sausage Blend and 2 tablespoons of olive oil)3/4 C of butternut squash diced (sweet potato could be substituted)3-4 shallots
sliced1/4 C of dried cranberries2 T pine nuts2-3 oz Chevre (goat cheese) crumbled
into small 1/2" chunks4 oz Fontina cheese shredded or cut into small 3/4 - 1 inch pieces2 Naan bread
or other flatbread (whatever is available)1 tsp WildCheff Sagebrush Outdoorsmen's BlendSalt and pepper
to tasteolive oil Directions Preheat out door grill to 350
degrees. Regular indoor oven can be substituted - you would need it heated to 375 degrees. Put a saute
pan over medium heat and add olive oil to coat pan. Place small 1/2 - 3/4" chunks of maple sausage into pan and cook
until 1/2 done. (should have some pink color internally). Remove from heat and place on a dish. Recoat saute
pan with olive oil and return to stovetop over medium heat. Add sliced shallots, butternut squash, pine nuts and cranberries.
Season veggie and fruit mixture with Sagebrush Blend, salt and pepper. Saute until squash is cooked, stirring occasionally.
Remove from stove and let cool. Take flatbread and brush with olive oil. Add sauteed ingredients evenly
over top of both breads. Stud breads with chunks of goat cheese and Fontina cheese. (other good melting cheese can be substituted
if Fointina is hard to find in your area). Place breads onto oiled and heated grill or on rack in oven. Close lid
and monitor them every couple of minutes. When bottom of bread gets slightly crisp and cheese melts atop the bread, remove
and place on cutting board or pizza pan. Cut into wedges and serve. This is a great appetizer
that will have your guests running back for more.
