Take-out Tuesday, Holiday Dressing with Focaccia, Cornbread & Sausage

This dressing might put a different twist on your holiday table, with 2 different kinds of bread, flavorful sausage, and herbs

It’s easy to toss together and you can double the recipe for a crowd

We used rosemary focaccia bread from the bakery, and some leftover Sour Cream Cornbread

Sauteed onions and celery

Combine with chicken broth, poultry seasoning  and parsley to make a tasty sauce to moisten the bread cubes and sausage

Season the bread with salt and pepper

Then pour the vegetable broth mixture over all

Add beaten eggs and stir gently to combine

Transfer to a greased, or cooking oil sprayed casserole dish

Refrigerate at this point up to 24 hours before baking if desired

Bake covered for 30 minutes, then uncover and continue baking until hot and starting to turn golden and crispy on top
