Cornbread and Ham Dressing

Ingredients:

1/2 cup Butter
2 medium Onions, chopped
4 green onions, with about 3 inches of the green
2 Cloves garlic, minced
2 Ribs Celery, finely chopped
8 ounces ham, diced
1 teaspoon dried leaf sage, crumbled
1 teaspoon dried leaf thyme
Freshly ground pepper
2 packages (8 ounces each) cornbread stuffing mix
1/2 cup Parsley, finely chopped
2 to 3 cups chicken broth

Instructions:

Melt the butter in a large skillet; saute the onions, green onions, and the celery over medium heat until softened, about 6 to 8 minutes. Add the ham, sage, thyme, and pepper; cook, stirring, for 1 minute longer. Gradually stir in the corn bread stuffing mix; add the parsley and cook over medium heat until the stuffing is moistened but not soaked. Toss well, then spoon into a 9 x 13-inch baking pan. Stuffing may be prepared to this point and refrigerated overnight. Baking instructions:

Cover with foil and bake in a 375° F. oven for 30 to 40 minutes.
