Twomama's Dressing


Picture is dressing from Cindy's notes from Myra

1 qt crumbled biscuits (20)
1 qt toasted white bread (8 slices)
1 qt corn bread mix, yellow (3 6oz pkgs)
1 c chopped onion
1 c green onion tops
1 1/2 cans chicken broth
1 c celery
1 c butter
2 tsp sage
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 eggs, slightly beaten

Add all except broth, butter and eggs. Toss well. Cook in well greased baking dish. Serves 14 people.

Note: I typed exactly what was written. I guess you can figure on your own what to do with the broth, butter and eggs. Another dressing recipe of Twomama's will be added soon.

UPDATE: After talking to Cindy, she gave me Myra's version and I halved it:

6 pkg Martha White white cornbread, baked
1/2 stick butter
1 bunch celery, chopped
1 1/2 bunch green onion, chopped
1/2 large onion, chopped
1/2 box of croutons
3 cans of chicken broth
1/2 can cream of chicken soup
1-2 tsp ground sage
salt pepper
1 egg*

Mix and put in 9x13 baking dish.  Bake covered at 325 degrees for 45 minutes.  Uncover and bake additional 15 minutes.

*I added egg because the original recipe called for it.

  1. I'm going to try out some of these family recipes. The meals Myra and Aunt Gladys prepared when I was lucky enough to get to sit at The Judge and Two-Mama's dinner table when I was a kid are among the most memorable of my youth. My wife Peggy is going to see this dressing recipe soon. Because I'm going to point it out to her . . . and maybe she will make it for me and the boys soon. Thanks.

Form into a long roll and slice in pieces about the size of a large egg, or larger, depending on the size of lefse desired. Roll each piece around as for pie crust and as thin as possible.

When baked, place between clean cloths or wax paper to keep them from becoming dry. Serve cold with butter or butter, sugar and cinnamon. Cut each lefse in half or fourths and roll up before serving.
