Classic Cornbread Dressing

December 24, 2011 by pictureperfectcooking

One of my favorite holiday side dishes is dressing. Now, I am not talking about stuffing because since I am incredibly allergic to poultry, I never touch a turkey and, really, there is just something about the thought of stuffing these ingredients inside the bird’s…well, you get the picture. It’s just not appetizing to me! This is classic Southern style DRESSING which I found on the awesome website allrecipes.com. I don’t know how many times I have been looking for a certain recipe and found it there. It is a great resource.

1 batch of homemade cornbread, prepared and crumbled

2 tablespoons butter

1/2 cup chopped celery

1 small onion

2 eggs, beaten

2 cups beef stock

2 tablespoons dried sage

salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease one 9×13 inch baking dish. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté 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 for 30 minutes.

Here is a photo of the Thanksgiving table at my nanny’s house. Everything was so good!

I just love Cornbread dressing. Sometimes I just have to have some dressing. Your recipe looks delicious and has me wanting a nice pan of dressing baking in the oven, there is nothing like it! Thank you so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday. Wishing you and your family a very Happy New Year and Abundant Blessings in 2012!
