Sharon’s dressing
~ Shopping List ~ Martha White’s white cornmeal mix (you’ll be making 2 9″ skillets for the full recipe) 1/4 cup sugar 5-6 slices of white bread Sage (dry) Poultry seasoning Salt Pepper 1 Large Onion 1/4 cup butter or margarine Turkey stock (if you are making this with Turkey use the stock generated during cooking. If not, any stock will work. You will need enough to make your mixture “soupy” but not so thin that it does not set during baking.) ~ To do ~ Make cornbread according to directions on the package (add sugar before cooking). Toast the bread. Crumble the cornbread and bread together into a very large bowl (should resemble bread crumbs). Add at least 1 tablespoon each of poultry seasoning and sage.
