SPICE YOUR THANKSGIVING UP WITH AN INSITE FAMILY FAVORITE!

I can't find my original recipe that I once placed online but this version of seafood cornbread dressing is similar to mine.  But instead of adding crawfish I typically use dried shrimp which provides much more flavor after soaking in 2 cups of hot water.  I also included ground beef in my mix which almost makes it a stand alone meal.  But enjoy this version and email me if you have questions:

Ingredients
2 boxes Jiffy Corn Bread or you can make a large skillet of your own cornbread	1 cup margarine
1 small container of chopped seasonings onions, celery, bell pepper, green onions	1 can cream of shrimp soup
1 can chicken broth	1 pound shrimp peel and deveined
1 pound crawfish tails or crabmeat (you could use all three types of seafood if you wish	garlic powder, salt, black pepper and red pepper to taste
Directions
Prepare Cornbread mix according to package directions or prepare your own cornbread. See our site for homemade cornbread. When done put in large bowl and crumble. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt margarine in skillet and add chopped seasoning mix and sauté until wilted. Add, soup, broth, shrimp and crawfish or crabmeat. Mix well and heat but do not boil. Add seasonings a little at a time, taste and adjust until you get the desired taste you like. In a large greased baking pan, put the bread mix. Add your seafood mixture a little at a time and mix; keep doing this until all is mixed together. You may have to add a little more moisture (broth) to the mix if it is not moist enough. Don’t add a lot at a time, you don’t want it to be runny. I use extra broth if needed. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes until golden brown. Serve with tossed green salad.
