CHAR'S CORNBREAD DRESSING
(or rice dressing)

Things you will need:

• 4 boxes of cornbread mix***
• 1 can chicken noodle soup
• 1 can cream of chicken soup
• 1 can creamed corn
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 1 large bell pepper, chopped (optional)
• 2 TB minced/chopped garlic
• Cajun seasoning
• 1# ground beef
• 1# ground sausage
• 12 oz water 
• 4 chicken bouillon cubes
• Cajun seasoning to taste
• 1/2 c sugar

Brown ground beef and ground sausage, drain. Add seasoning and veggies and simmer about 30 minutes -- or until veggies are tender.  Add soups and corn and mix well.  Prepare cornbread per package directions, add sugar, and bake.  Add pieces of baked cornbread to meat mixture until desired consistency is achieved.  Boil 12 oz of water and add chicken bouillon cubes.  Add to dressing and stir well.  This may be twice cooked by spreading into casserole dish and baking till firm and golden brown (@ 350 for about 30 minutes) or eaten as is.  It's delicious! Great when used as stuffing for chicken or turkey as well.

***Using a little imagination, you can substitute the cornbread for cooked rice (five to six cups should suffice), add some Kitchen Bouquet, and voila....rice dressing (aka dirty rice)!!!!! I do this all the time, and it is delicious!!!! :-)
