[dkad]

Just looking around and came upon this recipe, think I will give it a try. What does thyme do to flovoring? Personally I would use a lot lot lot more sage. It doesn't call for bread but don't know why one dry some GF bisicuits or other GF bread and add to it. I will try it for thanksgiving as there will be just the 3 of us.
Cornbread Stuffing

Salt and pepper to taste

Remove cornbread cubes from the oven and cool to room temperature.

Melt butter in pan; saute the celery and onion until soft.

Stir in the thyme, sage, and parsley. Cool.

Stir the cornbread and cooked onion-celery mixture together.

Hi dkad,
re cornbread dressing, the egg & any "crumbs" you add make a lighter dressing. You could save any GF crackers, bread etc & crumple them & add to the dressing. I also crumble my corn bread - no cubes for me. I also add Poultry seasoning to the dressing. You are right on with the sage - I would use more. I do not use parsley. As an east Texas back woods child we did not have the stuff in the house, ever !!!! I also use homemade broth from cooking the turkey neck etc or some that I have frozen from chicken stock.

I hope you enjoy your dressing!!!
