Ingredients

Instructions

  • Saute the celery and onions in butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the veggies are tender. Set aside and let cool
  • In a large mixing bowl, crumble the cornbread and add the salt, pepper, sage and the sautéed veggies
  • Add the broth to the cornbread mixture 1 cup at a time until the mixture is a thick like pudding. This is the time to check your seasonings. Add more salt or pepper if needed and we love more sage so add more of it if you wish.
  • Beat the eggs and mix them into the cornbread mixture. Gently spoon into a large baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for an hour, uncovered

Notes

This same recipe could also be used to stuff your Thanksgiving Turkey. Instead of placing it into the baking dish, just stuff your bird and follow the directions on cooking a stuffed Turkey.
