I made this for thanksgiving this year. It was disgusting. No flavor, well, overwhelming garlic flavor, I was so embarrassed, as mine are usually the most scarfed up dishes. I have to say her dishes are hit or miss.......
The worst dressing I have ever made.
Can this be made the night before?
Once again - thrilled to get a scratch recipe from MSL for my collection. I'm from the South and this is exactly like the dressing I ate growing up. You are wonderful, thank you for this!
This is kinda like I make mine, except I put sage and a couple cans of cream of chicken soup.

Wonderful stuffing. This is the first one I've made before, and it was great! I used only the fresh parsley, and added other spice mixtures. Brought it to a Thanksgiving potluck, and it was quite popular!

I cut my cornbread into bitesize cubes and let it sit out overnight to dry out. I like the texture of the big pieces of bread. If you use fresh cornbread, it turns to mush.

By the way, great-grandmother's recipe calls for cornbread (same amount as in this recipe) AND white bread. I think she uses 8 slices of toasted white bread along with the cornbread. YUM!

This recipe is very similar to my great-grandmother's cornbread dressing recipe (she was a Southerner through and through!). She would make the dressing one day in advance and then let it sit in the fridge overnight. She deemed this very important. Before refrigeration she would pour 1/2 cup more broth over it and then dot it all over with butter. I highly recommend making these tiny adjustments because it makes all the difference!!!!!

If you click on "Cornbread dressing" where it is listed in this recipe, it will link you to the Cornbread recipe. The cornbread makes an 8 inch square and I believe you use all of it for this dressing.

It would be helpful to know the amount of cornbread needed for this recipe. Thanks!
