Mammaw’s Holiday Homemade Corn Bread Dressing

Note: Make 3 recipes of the corn bread for this.Mix together the 3 recipes of corn bread that has been crumbled into pieces, with 4 raw eggs, 4 sticks of chopped celery, 7 sticks of chopped green onions, 4 chopped boiled eggs, 1 teaspoon of sage, salt and pepper to taste. Add 1 large can of cream of chicken soup. Add chicken broth next (either use fresh broth from cooked chicken or canned) If you use can broth use about 6 or 7 cans. Mix well together. It should be very runny and not dry. Pour this into a large roasting or baking pan sprayed with PAM. Bake 350 degrees about 45 minutes to 1 hour until juice is all gone and celery and onions are tender. If it starts to brown too quickly before it is done, then put a lid or foil on top of the pan.You can add cooked chicken to the dressing before baking it. This is how Grandma Hilton made her dressing.
