SOUTHERN STYLE CORNBREAD TURKEY
OR CHICKEN DRESSING
 
In a large saucepan, boil turkey wings cut from turkey, two will not be enough so buy an extra package of wings. Add giblets; season with salt and pepper and boil until meat is tender. Remove meat from bone and set aside. Set broth aside.

Bake cornbread in large black skillet; crumble into large bowl. Add cut up green onions, round onions, celery, 2 to 3 beaten eggs, and 3 chopped boiled eggs. Add 1 box of prepared stuffing mix. Toss together then add as much broth as desired. To prevent dryness after baking, add enough broth to make soupy. Place in shallow baking dish and add pieces of turkey meat from wings; bake at 400 degrees until lightly browned on top and set. Being careful not to overcook. Dressing needs to be moist not dry. Add ingredients to taste.

If you want to stuff the turkey, allow the stuffing mix to be a little dryer than you do cooking in open pan.

You NEVER use packaged stuffing for true southern made cornbread dressing. Stuffing is made using white bread and makes a delicious Yankee Thanksgiving dish. While dressing is made with cornbread, & not jiffy mix lol, & makes a delicious southern dish. Stuffing - Dressing are two different ball games.
