Family Cornbread Dressing

"My family's Cornbread Dressing looked more like cornbread than dressing. The first time my husband came to Thanksgiving Dinner with my family he almost asked them to pass the cornbread. When we ate our first Thanksgiving Dinner with his family, I learned his mom's secret to Wonderful Cornbread Dressing - Lots and Lots of Broth! I have made her version of Cornbread Dressing since, but I add chopped meat and eggs like my mom's recipe. Now we have a marriage of both mom's Cornbread Dressing."
