Southern Cornbread Dressing

This recipe belonged to Martha Clemmons who we called mamaw. She was my best friends grandma and my 2nd grandma. This is the dressing I grew up on in Texas. My dad made close to the same version but he added chicken so it was a meal in itself! Thank you Valerie for sharing ma maw's recipe with me.

cornbread made to package directions
7 slices white bread (set out a day to dry out)
2 cups chopped celery
1 small diced yellow onion
1 stick of butter

7 cups chicken broth
Directions
Heat oven to 350 degrees.
Spray 9x13 pan with oil
Saute the veggies in the stick of butter
Break bread crumbs into a large bowl
Crunch a sleeve of crackers into the bowl & stir together.

Add chicken broth & stir until mixed together well.
Whisk together the eggs and add to the mixture. Stir to blend.

I'm a 7th generation Texan and this is nearly the same as ours! Although, we use a few more seasonings, we only use cornbread and we (like your dad) put chicken in ours. Thanks for sharing!!!

I love chicken in it . Next year, I plan to include it again. It must be a Texas recipe because this is similar to most of my Texas friends recipe

Thank you. You made it look easy and I’m gonna give it a try

I struggled with my dressing for several years after my dad could no longer make it. I made it harder than it had to be. This recipe once again taught me simple is best !
