The deliciously southern ingredients...



Momma is getting the onions and celery ready for the chopper...



She starts with a  1/2 stick of butter to saute' the onions and celery...
this makes them soooo good for the dressing...



Look at that beautiful yumminess :)



She then combines the 3 soups in a pot and 
heats them on low until warm and creamy...



In a large bowl, combine 1/2 the bag 
of the corn bread stuffing mix...



Crumble 1/2 the cooked cornbread, the onions 
and celery and the soups...

add the spices and combine...



Grate the boiled eggs...
we don't like big chunky egg whites in our dressing...
that's just a personal thing...
if you like big chunky egg whites, just dice away....
(but what's wrong with you??)



Add 1 cup of turkey or chicken stock...




Pour it in your pan and dot the top with butter...

Bake on 350 degrees for 45 minutes...

It will be so very wondermous like this!
