Cornbread Dressing

Submitted by CarolAT

"This cornbread dressing is a tradition in my family that was passed on to me by my Mother. She always made her cornbread to use in this dressing mixture (Recipe #272589). If a turkey is served during a holiday, this dressing is always a part of the dinner."

My mom's dressing is "a pinch of this and some of that" so I loved having a guide while trying to recreate it. This was exactly the texture I was looking for after cooking for about 45 minutes. I will keep this as a base recipe but try adding some extra seasoning next time as well as some chicken or turkey (whatever else is on the menu). Thanks for the recipe!
