GG'S TURKEY DRESSING | |
History of recipe - My mother (GG, or Grandma Gladys), who was born in Connecticut, always made a bread crumb dressing. However, my husband, whose family was from Tennessee, always made cornbread dressing. This recipe somewhat marries the two although it still shows the preference for bread dressing. Over the years it became my children's favorite dressing. 4 tbsp. (1/2 stick) butter, cut in pieces 1 medium white or yellow onion, chopped 4 or 5 celery stalks, chopped (about 1 cup) 2 cups turkey broth, reserved from cooking the turkey (add water or store bought broth if necessary) 1 Granny Smith apple, peeled and finely chopped 1/2 bag Pepperidge Farm country style stuffing 1/2 bag Pepperidge Farm cornbread stuffing 3 or 4 leftover biscuits, allowed to harden, and broken up in pieces leftover cornbread (optional, broken up in pieces) 1 tsp. sage 1/2 tsp. poultry seasoning salt and pepper, to taste 1 cup chopped, toasted pecans (optional) non-stick cooking spray (Pam) or additional butter If not already hot, preheat oven to 375°F. Place the stuffing mixes, leftover biscuits and cornbread into a large bowl and allow to sit for several days to dry out. On day of preparation, chop the onion, celery and apple and add, along with seasonings, and pecans (optional) to the bowl. Pour turkey drippings over the dressing and stir. The mix should be slightly dry. Use the broth to adjust the consistency. Grease a large casserole dish by either using butter or non-stick cooking spray. Pour dressing into the dish. Bake, covered, at 375°F for 25 minutes. Uncover the last 5 to 10 minutes. At one corner of the dressing, using a teaspoon, and allowing to cool a little, take a teaspoon and taste. Adjust salt and pepper if need be. Enjoy! Submitted by: Karen Lovell |
