Corn Bread Dressing image

This traditional cornbread dressing is a must have at all of my family's Thanksgiving tables. This has been passed down from my grandmother and hasn't change much through the years. Tried and true southern dish.

  • Brown and crumble the sausage. Add vegetable mixture to the sausage.
  • Crumble cornbread, add croutons, eggs and sausage mixture and blend.
