Holiday Dressing In A Crock

1. 1

   In a heavy skillet, heat the extra virgin olive oil. Add in the chopped onion, celery and mushrooms, stirring until vegetables are tender.

2. 2

   Stir together cornbread crumbs, stuffing mix, and remaining ingredients except butter in a large bowl. Add onions, celery and mushrooms.

3. 3

   Stir well. At this point your mixture should have the consistency of cooked oatmeal. If it's too loose, add a bit more of the herbed stuffing mix and corn bread; If it's too stiff, add in more chicken broth.

4. 4

   Pour cornbread mixture into a lightly greased 5 1/2- or 6-quart slow cooker. Add the grated butter on top.

5. 5

   Cook, covered, on LOW for 4 hours or until cooked through and set.

6. 6

   (Add more sage, if you like the flavor, halfway through the cooking time.)
