As I ponder on what to write about today it dawns on me that I am busy thinking about the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday. This year our family is meeting at my oldest daughter’s house, and since this is the first time she has hosted a family event she is a little stressed. Our family has grown over the years and we now have 18 who come for dinner. I have talked to her more in the past week than I think I have all month! I realize as a mother you never stop being a mentor to your children, even if it is the details of putting together a Thanksgiving dinner! I must admit I am chuckling on the inside because I think she had a lightbulb moment and realized I had been doing this for twenty plus years!

     As many of you prepare for this wonderful holiday, I thought I would share with you a wonderfully, easy recipe for stuffing, it was given to me by a friend many years ago and I make it every year. The problem is that there is never any left over! Please share some of your favorite recipe’s with me!

Phil’s Dressing

1 Bag Cornbread Stuffing

1 Bag Herb Stuffing

1 Can cream of Mushroom soup

1 Can cream of Chicken soup

1 Can cream of Celery

2-3 eggs

chopped celery

chopped onion

Chicken broth

salt, pepper, sage, & garlic powder to taste

Mix everything together and be sure to add enough broth so that it is very wet. Bake at 350 degrees until golden brown on top and well set in the middle, this usually takes about 30-45 minutes.

Have a wonderful holiday and I look forward to some of your favorite family recipes.
