Southern Cornbread Stuffing





* Cornbread, recipe follows





* 7 slices oven-dried white bread


* 1 sleeve saltine crackers


* 8 tablespoons butter


* 2 cups celery, chopped


* 1 large onion, chopped


* 7 cups chicken stock


* 1 teaspoon salt


* Freshly ground black pepper


* 1 teaspoon sage (optional)


* 1 tablespoon poultry seasoning (optional)


* 5 eggs, beaten








Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.





In a large bowl, combine crumbled cornbread, dried white bread slices, and saltines; set aside.





Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the celery and onion and cook until transparent, approximately 5 to 10 minutes. Pour the vegetable mixture over cornbread mixture. Add the stock, mix well, taste, and add salt, pepper to taste, sage, and poultry seasoning. Add beaten eggs and mix well. Reserve 2 heaping tablespoons of this mixture for the giblet gravy. Pour mixture into a greased pan and bake until dressing is cooked through, about 45 minutes. Serve with turkey as a side dish.


Cornbread:





* 1 cup self-rising cornmeal


* 1/2 cup self-rising flour


* 3/4 cup buttermilk


* 2 eggs


* 2 tablespoons vegetable oil





Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.





Combine all ingredients and mix well. Pour batter into a greased shallow baking dish. Bake for approximately 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.





To serve, cut into desired squares and serve with butter.





Yield: 6 to 8 servings



1/2 c. chopped green onions


1/4 c. chopped onions


1/4 c. chopped bell pepper


1 can cream of mushroom soup


1 can cream of onion soup


1 (1 lb.) Harold's Dressing Mix


1 (3 oz.) can sliced mushrooms


1 pkg. prepared Jiffy cornbread Mix


Cayenne pepper to taste





Depending on consistency desired, a second cornbread may be needed to obtain a drier mixture.:





Prepare cornbread following directions on box. Heat dressing mix, soups and mushrooms. Add onions, bell pepper and green onions, and cook until onions are tender. Crumble and stir in prepared cornbread. Pour into a greased pan of adequate size and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until edges are crisp.


The baking step may be eliminated and the dressing may be served directly from the pot.



Look up sweet cornbread recipes on Allrecipes.com. I use this website all the time. It's great because you get to read the reviews BEFORE you use the recipe. That's my favorite thing about this website.
Look into the Food Network line up of Thanksgiving menus. They have some great recipes!
