Emma's Cornbread Dressing

Cornbread:

1 c yellow cornmeal
1 c flour
4 T sugar
2 t baking powder
1 t salt
¾ c milk
¼ c vegetable oil
2 eggs

Mix dry ingredients well, then add eggs, milk, and oil.  Blend
until smooth.  Bake in 9-inch square pan for 30-35 min at 400F,
until well browned on top.

1 large onion, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
1 medium green pepper (or other sweet peppers), diced
1/8 c chopped parsley
(optional) ½ c cooked spicy turkey or pork sausage
(optional) ½ c finely chopped walnuts
1 t salt
½ t pepper
1½ T rubbed/ground (not chopped/whole)sage
1 T marjoram
1 T thyme
(other spices to taste   add about twice as much as seems right,
since the mixture absorbs a lot of the flavor)
Chopped walnuts??

Combine above ingredients and mix well.  Crumble cornbread into
½" or smaller chunks, but do not grind into powder.  Mix crumbled
cornbread thoroughly with vegetable mixture, but do not overwork.

Approx 1½ c chicken or turkey broth (eg, from boiled neck)

Add broth to the mixture and mix gently until "right"   until the
mixture clumps but isn't soggy.

Use for stuffing or place in a pan and bake until browned (approx
½ hour).
