Old Timey Turkey Dressing

Now that I've posted several articles, I thought I should get back to adding my family's famous secret recipes. This is on of the truly great dishes to be served with the special dinners at Christmas or Thanksgiving. It's easy to prepare and very good. As a matter of fact, it's down right GOOD!

Old Timey Turkey Dressing

1 turkey, or baking hen 2 T. poultry seasoning, rounded
4 breakfast biscuits 1-2 T. sage, rounded
4 slices of bread 1 T. black pepper
1 10-inch skillet of cornbread 1/2 tsp. celery seed
2 cups celery, chopped 3 boiled eggs, diced
2 cups onions, chopped 1 stick margarine
2 T. salt, level

Bake or boil turkey, save liquid for recipe. Put celery and onion in pan with enough water to cover and boil for 15 minutes. In large bowl put all bread and add onions and celery in liquid, add butter, and enough stock from boiled turkey to make consistency of uncooked cornbread. If you have no biscuits, sub. with 4 slices of bread. Add seasonings; stir well. Add eggs and stir gently. Bake 30 minutes at 450 degrees. Opt: remove from the bone and add to dressing before baking. Serve warm with your meal.
