Growing up, we didn't have turkey. We had chicken, chopped and baked in my grandmother's dressing. Now we leave out the chicken and keep the cornbread dressing. -Suzanne Mohme, Bastrop, Texas

GRANNY'S SOUTHERN CORNBREAD DRESSING



Granny's Southern Cornbread Dressing image

This is how the last 5 generations of our family have made cornbread dressing. Surprised not to see this on Zar. So here is my family recipe. I was always the official taste tester. Before it went into the oven my mom would give me a bowl of it. I would tell her what seasonings needed adjusting. It became a ritual. LOL The cornbread is baked with the onion and celery in it. Really makes a difference to taste.
