Quick Holiday Dressing Recipes

HOLIDAY CORNBREAD DRESSING

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees
• 2. In a large baking pan sprayed with Pam combine celery and onion mixture, melted butter, beaten eggs with cornbread, bread crumbs, chicken/turkey broth, poultry seasoning, sage, salt and pepper. The dressing should be pretty soupy to start, so that it doesn't get too dry while cooking. You may need to add more broth.
• 3. Bake, covered, for 35 minutes and uncovered for 10 minutes until browned or until well set and cooked through.

GRANDMA'S CORN BREAD DRESSING

Steps:

• Prepare the dry corn bread mix according to package directions. Cool and crumble.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease one 9x13 inch baking dish.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and saute the celery and onion until soft.
• In a large bowl, combine the celery, onions, 3 cups crumbled corn bread, eggs, chicken stock, sage and salt and pepper to taste; mix well.
• Place into prepared dish and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes.

CROCK POT HOLIDAY DRESSING

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat and saute the onions, celery, mushrooms and the parsley until tender but not browned.
• In a large mixing bowl, spoon the sauteed vegetables over the bread cubes and then add all the spices and herbs into the mix. Stir.
• Mix the beaten eggs with the chicken stock and add this to the mix a little at a time as you stir carefully. You may not need every bit of the stock-egg blend so be careful to not turn your dressing into soup. You should still be able to discern the bread cubes but they should be fairly wet.
• Transfer the mix into your crock pot (a large one is best) and cover.
• Cook on High for an hour and then reduce to the Low setting and allow it to cook for four to eight more hours until it reaches the consistency that you like.
• If you don't have the Paul Prudhomme seasoning you can use seasoned salt or, better yet, poultry seasoning.
