Ingredients:
  • Cornbread
  • Biscuits
  • Onion, chopped fine
  • Celery, chopped fine
  • Turkey stock
  • Margarine or butter
  • 1 or 2 eggs
Directions:

Crumble cornbread and biscuits. Use a proportion of about 2/3 cornbread to 1/3 biscuits. Cook onion and celery in a small amount of stock until onions are clear. You can stretch your stock with store-bought stock or milk, as needed. Add warm stock and eggs. Stir. Your dressing should be about the consistency of muffin batter. Just before cooking, dip a few spoonfuls of stock over dressing. Bake 30-45 minutes in a moderate oven (350 to 375 degrees). It should be browned a bit and look firm.
