Directions:
Mix both breads together and add salt, pepper, and sage. Mix all together.
Saute onions and celery in butter or margarine until tender. Add to bread mixture. Mix lightly.
Add stock and eggs to bread mixture, toss lightly. Avoid overmixing, which causes dressing to be soggy and solid. Pour into a large casserole dish that has been sprayed with Pam.
Bake in a 350º oven for 30 - 40 minutes, or until lightly browned around the edges.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
I don't put any eggs in my dressing. Instead, I add extra stock and the mixture is pretty wet. The taste is the same, but less cholesterol. I usually use canned chicken broth, too. I have sauted my celery and onions in the chicken broth before and eliminated the margarine, too. It tasted good to me. I usually adjust the salt, pepper, and sage to taste the way I like it. This is a fairly large amount, but always good left over.
