Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Rub a 8 or 9 inch square casserole dish with a little of the olive oil and set aside.

Saute celery and onion in the olive oil in a saute pan over medium heat until partially cooked. Remove from heat and set aside.

Mix well all ingredients in a large bowl. Spread into casserole dish, and bake uncovered for 45 minutes. Enjoy!
I always buy an extra bag of vegan stuffing around the holidays to stash in my pantry for this dish. It reminds me of a casserole my mom used to make that was topped with a layer of dressing. Underneath was a creamy filling. I use veggies and a vegan protein for that layer in my casserole.
