Steps:
- Preheat Oven to 425 Degrees F.
- Grease a 9 X 13 pan and set aside.
- In a saucepan over low heat, melt butter, but do not burn.
- Add onion and saute over medium heat for about 3 minutes.
- Add celery and continue sauteing for another 2 or 3 minutes or until onions are soft and somewhat translucent.
- Do NOT brown.
- Remove pan from burner and set aside.
- (Turn burner off.) In a large bowl or pan, combine breads, green onion, parsley and rest of seasonings.
- Add sauteed onions, celery and drippings.
- Mix well.
- Add eggs, chicken broth or stock and melted butter.
- Mix well.
- Stuffing mixture should be"wet" and thick like cake batter or soup.
- Add water if needed, but not too much.
- Pour stuffing mixture into greased pan and bake for about 40 minutes.
- Nita's Note: I do NOT add sage or boiled eggs to my dressing.
- Sage is not traditional in my family and many people do not like it.
- Boiled eggs toughen and"weep" when reheated.
- Eggs are better added to the bread when it is made.
- I do not"stuff" chicken or turkey.
- This is again, not traditional in our family.
- Now we are told by the health department folks that doing so can be dangerous and lead to food poisoning.
- Cornbread Dressing is served as a side dish with sliced or pulled chicken or turkey, cranberry sauce and gravy-- Either giblet gravy, or cream of chicken or turkey gravy.
- ENJOY!
