Savory Corn Bread Dressing Recipe

Prep: 25 min. Bake: 40 min.

Yield: 12 Servings

25 40 65

Ingredients

2-1/2 cups chopped celery
1-1/4 cups chopped onions
10 tablespoons butter
7-1/2 cups coarsely crumbled corn bread
2-1/2 cups soft bread crumbs
4 teaspoons rubbed sage
4 teaspoons poultry seasoning
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1-1/3 cups chicken broth

Directions

In a large skillet, saute celery and onions in butter until tender; transfer to a large bowl. Add the corn bread, bread crumbs, sage and poultry seasoning. Combine eggs and broth; add to corn bread mixture, stirring gently to mix.
Transfer to a greased 2-qt. baking dish. Cover and bake at 325° for 30 minutes. Uncover; bake 10 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 165° and stuffing is lightly browned. Yield: 12 servings (9 cups).

Editor's Note:To use this as a stuffing for poultry, substitute 1/2 cup egg substitute for the eggs. This is suitable to stuff a 12- to 14-pound turkey.
