I have tried many cornbread dressing recipes and did not like some of them so I decided to experiment and make my own recipe. This is the result.

  • 3 cups cooked, chopped chicken
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 bunch cream of celery soup
  • 4 quarts cooked cornbread, crumbled (i use large skillet of cornbread)
  • 2 tablespoons dried sage
  • 1 medium onion, chopped finely
  • 1 medium red/green bell pepper, chopped finely
  • 2 medium boiled eggs, chopped finely
  • 1 stick butter, melted

  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

How To Make patsy weaver's cornbread dressing

  • Step 1
    Cook meat ahead and chop. Cook cornbread ahead and crumble. Chop vegetables. Add everything to sprayed 13 X 9 pan. Combine all ingredients and spread into sprayed pan or baking dish. Bake 350 degrees approximatley 40-45 minutes until top is golden brown. Check at about 30 minutes since ovens vary. Do not over cook which will make it too dry unless you like a dry dressing. It is done when when peppers and onions get done. Serve hot with your favorite giblet gravy.
  • Step 2
    Note: Add finely chopped celery (I do if I remember to buy some) and chopped pecans in the mix before cooking if you prefer. I do not like pecans in my dressing. Also if you add eggs to the cornbread when cooking it you might like to leave the boiled eggs out when mixing dressing, but I prefer eggs in both.
