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!
