2 large eggs, lightly beaten

2 3/4 cups chicken broth

1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley

Coarse salt and pepper to taste


Method


1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

2. Spread cornbread and bread into two rimmed baking sheets, and bake until dry and golden, about 15 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, cook bacon over medium until fat is rendered and bacon is crisp, about 5 minutes.

4. Add onion, celery, and garlic and cook until translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir in sage and transfer to a large bowl.

5. Add cornbread, bread, eggs, broth, parsley, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to bowl and toss until combined. Let sit 5 minutes, then toss again.
