MOM'S THANKSGIVING DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Combine all ingredients, except the broth, in a large bowl or pot, cover, and set overnight in the refrigerator, of for at least several hours.
• Transfer the mixture into your serving dish and pat down gently with your hands.
• Pour enough broth into the prepared dressing until it's just juicy to the touch. Shouldn't be swimming in it, but still juicy when pressed.
• Bake for 50 minutes. If starting to brown too much, cover with foil in the final 15 minutes of baking.

MOM'S DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium-sized saute pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, and apple and saute until just tender. Remove from the heat and add the onion mixture to the bread in a large mixing bowl. In a medium mixing bowl, beat the eggs with the milk, sage, salt, and pepper. Pour over the bread mixture and stir to combine and moisten the bread. Transfer to a casserole dish and bake for about 1 hour or until browned on top. Serve.

HOMEMADE DRESSING

Steps:

• Saute the onion and celery in the butter until tender. Add mushrooms if you would like!
• Combine all ingredients in a large bowl; mix well. I use a healthy sprinkling of poultry seasoning -- that is what makes it smell soooo good while cooking!
• Place into a 13x9x2 inch baking dish.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.
• If dressing begins to look too dry, add more chicken stock. (While waiting on the turkey to finish, you might leave the dressing in the oven -- in this case, add more chicken stock!).
