3 slices white bread, toasted and crumbled (or leftover biscuits)

Directions: |
Directions:Set oven to 350º F.
In a large bowl, crumble up the cornbread and set aside.
In a skillet, melt the butter, add celery and onions; sauté until tender.
Stir the vegetables into the cornbread.
Stir in the breadcrumbs and giblets, if using. (I believe Mother chopped up the giblets and put into the dressing!)
To start, add 1 tsp. poultry seasoning and sage and black pepper. Before adding the eggs, taste the mixture and adjust the seasonings if needed. It should taste exactly how you prefer your dressing to taste.
Once satisfied with the taste, add the eggs.
Spread the mixture evenly into a greased 9x13 casserole dish. Bake 45-55 min. Remove from oven and let cool
NOTE: You want the mixture to be on the “soupy” side, real pourable. |
