Eastwood Cornbread Dressing



Maxine Eastwood (turned 90 years old in June 2013) uses this recipe for her famous Thanksgiving dressing. This is 1/2 the regular recipe, "Dressing for a Crowd".

I've been after her for years to give me the recipe, and she finally gave it me this year. 

Mix dry ingredients together:
8 c cornbread (make up 1 package of Pioneer cornbread mix)
1/2 loaf white sandwich bread (cut into pieces, layout on cookie sheet and lightly toast, then crumble)
1/2 t poultry seasoning
1/2 t sage
1/2 t pepper
1/2 t salt
2 t garlic powder

Then add:
3 c celery, sliced (6 stalks)
1 1/2 c chopped onion
2-3 green onions, chopped

Next, add:
1 stick butter, melted

Mix together, then add to dressing mix, taking care to not over mix:
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can water
3 c beef broth (3 cubes, 3 c water)
3 eggs

Mix just until ingredients are combined, be careful not to over mix. You want to have some texture left in the bread. Mixture will be very wet. Pour into 9X13 baking pan and cook uncovered at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Serves 6-8.
