Escarole and mushroom dressing is a classic Southern dish that is made with fresh escarole, mushrooms, and a tangy dressing. It is a popular side dish for holiday meals, potlucks, and family gatherings. The escarole adds a slightly bitter flavor to the dish, while the mushrooms add a savory, earthy flavor. The dressing is typically made with vinegar, olive oil, and spices. Escarole and mushroom dressing can be made ahead of time and served cold or at room temperature.

PASSOVER MUSHROOM DRESSING
Southern dressing for Pesach made with matzo meal. Recipe can be tweaked to suit your taste. My family likes browned dressing with lots of pepper, but you can cook for less time at a lower temp to get dressing that is more moist with no 'crunch'. Also use any combination of mushrooms; you can also add more if you really like mushrooms.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Stir together the matzo meal, sugar, salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning in a large mixing bowl; set aside.
- Bring 2 cups of chicken broth to a boil in a small saucepan with 1/2 cup of canola oil. Stir into the matzo mixture until evenly moistened, then set aside to cool. Heat the remaining canola oil and the butter in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Stir in the chopped onion and green onion, and cook until the onion softens and turns translucent, about 7 minutes. Stir in the mushrooms and celery, and cook until the celery begins to soften, about 10 minutes more.

- Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes until browned. Stir once during this time to ensure even cooking.
