I just found this recipe Sunday. This is basically the same recipe I use. I have a different recipe for cornbread that is irresistible to eat yourself (you may have to keep the family away from it to have enough for the dressing).

Cornbread:

2 cups self-rising cornmeal mix
1 tbsp. sugar (optional)
1 egg, beaten
1 tbsp. oil
1 1/3 cups buttermilk

Grease 9-inch skillet and heat skillet in oven while preheating to 450°F. Combine all ingredients. Mix well with mixer (making sure if you use the crust also to get it mixed fine) and pour into hot pan. Bake 20-25 minutes. You can tell if it's done by inserting a knife in the middle.

My dressing:

1 hen(fat), boiled and reserving the broth
2 c. chopped onion
2 c. chopped celery
1 large baked pan of cornbread
6 eggs, beaten
2 c. cream of chicken soup
salt
pepper

Cut up fat hen. Remove meat from bones, set aside. Simmer chicken broth with onion and celery. Crumble cornbread, combine cornbread, eggs, soup and broth with onions and celery. Add salt and pepper to taste (add chicken if desired). Mix well and pour into greased baking dish. Bake at 350°F for about 2 hours or until brown on top.

Great recipe! I used homemade cornbread and torn loaf bread pieces.... and it turned out wonderful!! Thanks for sharing!

This was quick and simple with a few modifications and it was perfect, thanks for saving Thanksgiving. lol
