Mildred’s Cornbread Dressing
Ingredients
- 1 package Pepperidge Farms Stuffing Mix
- 1 pan of cornbread recipe follows
- 1 cup diced celery
- 1 cup diced onion
- 2-3 slices of bread torn into ½ inch pieces
- 1 diced green pepper optional
- 1 diced red pepper optional
- 1 cup diced carrots optional
- 3-4 cups chicken broth
Instructions
- Cook diced vegetables in a skillet with a little bit of oil until vegetables are softened.
- Break up the cornbread into a large bowl. Combine it with the stuffing mix, bread chunks, and cooked vegetables.
- Add chicken broth and stir to combine until all the bread is damp but not soggy.
- Transfer to a casserole dish, reserving any overflow stuffing to finish cooking later. We cook the rest with the leftovers tomorrow.
- Bake covered in a 350 degree oven for about 25 minutes. The timing is pretty arbitrary – you just want the stuffing to be heated through. You could remove the cover and bake an additional 5 minutes to slightly brown the top.
