Cornbread Dressing

Cornbread Dressing

  • 1 recipe Cornbread II
  • White bread
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 3-4 stalks celery, sliced
  • 2 t poultry seasoning
  • Sage (optional)
  • 1 1/2 t crushed red pepper
  • Turkey giblets, cooked and diced

Crumble cornbread and any white bread you have around (about 3 dinner rolls and some bread crusts were used when this recipe was written) in a large bowl. Pour chicken broth over bread and let soak.

Saute onion and celery in oil with poultry seasoning and sage. Add sauted vegetables and oil to bread mixture. Add remaining ingredients and mix by squeezing through your fingers. If additional moisture is needed, add more chicken broth (or add canned chicken broth).

Spoon dressing around and inside turkey.
