Cornbread Dressing With Gravy
A family-favorite holiday side with gravy for the dressing! My dad's mother made an old-fashioned cornbread dressing with gravy from scratch, without canned or boxed ingredients. She taught my mom, who passed this version on to me. I believe people came to my mom's house for Thanksgiving and Christmas for this one dish! This big-batch version does use cornbread mix, condensed soups, and bagged stuffing for convenience, but everyone asks for the recipe when I bring it along to a holiday potluck because they tell me how much it reminds them of the old-fashioned dressing their grandmothers used to make. Add more traditional stuffing spices as desired.
Chicken Florentine Dip
This chicken Florentine dip is great for parties. It is something I have been making for years, it is quick, easy and can feed many! It is usually the first thing empty, and when I show up without it, I have many disappointed fans. Serve with tortilla chips for dipping.
