Mexican cornbread mix
3 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, diced (about half of a large onion)
3 stalks celery, diced
1 medium bell pepper, diced
1/2 medium red bell pepper, diced (optional)
3 garlic cloves, minced
3 slices toast
1 chicken breast, baked and shredded
2 eggs, lightly beaten
3 -4 cups chicken or 3 -4 cups turkey broth
poultry seasoning and cayenne pepper, to taste

1
Prepare cornbread as package directs. I use a Mexican Cornbread mix. Don't use one that contains sugar.
2
When your cornbread has cooled, break it and the toast into a large bowl.
3
Saute onions, celery, and green bell pepper, optional red bell pepper, and garlic in butter until onions are transparent.
4
Add the shredded chicken and the sauteed veggies into the cornbread mixture. Use your hands to really mix it up.
5
Add poultry seasoning and cayenne pepper, mixing well.
6
Add in the broth a little at a time. Add in just enough to make it thick and somewhat soupy. Mix, well.
7
Give it a taste. It should taste exactly the way you want your dressing to taste. If it needs more spices add them here.
8
When you are content with the taste, stir in the eggs.
9
Pour into a buttered 9 X 13 casserole dish.
10
Bake for 45 minutes or until set.
