Ingredients

    1/2 batch of Alber's cornbread - allow to dry out overnight - about 10 oz of cornbread
    Roast Turkey Breast - 5 - 6 oz
    Carrots - approx 6 oz
    Celery - approx 8 oz
    Onion - approx 6 oz
    EVOO - 1T
    Chicken Stock - 1.5 - 2 cups
    Egg - 1 large
    rubbed sage - 2T (to taste)
    salt - 1t (to taste)

Tips

Prepare a batch of cornbread one to two days before and leave 1/2 the batch to dry out to use in this recipe. The crumbled cornbread should be very dry so it will absorb the chicken stock.


Directions

Crumble cornbread and allow to dry overnight or longer. Small dice vegetables and saute in olive oil until al dente. Allow vegetables to cool slightly. Add to cornbread with stock, shredded leftover turkey breast meat, well beaten egg, sage and salt. Mix well. Mixture should be very moist. Allow mixture to sit for about 5 minutes to allow moisture to absorb into cornbread. Portion equally into muffin tins ( it takes a heaping 1/3 cup) and bake for 45 to 55 minutes at 375 deg F. Serve with 2T of packaged turkey gravy or leftover thanksgiving gravy. (Gravy calories are not included in calorie count.)
