INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350F. Arrange crumbled corn bread on rimmed baking sheet. Bake corn bread until lightly toasted, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes. Transfer to large bowl. Cook bacon in heavy large skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 10 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towels to drain. Add butter to drippings in skillet and melt over medium heat. Add onion, celery, bell pepper and sage. Saute until vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. Cool slightly. (Bread, bacon and vegetable mixture can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover separately. Store bread at room temperature; refrigerate bacon and vegetables.) Add bacon, vegetable mixture and Spiced Pecans to corn bread. Season with salt and pepper. Mix eggs into stuffing. To bake stuffing in Turkey: Loosely fill main turkey cavity with stuffing. Add enough broth to remaining stuffing to moisten lightly (about 1/4 to 1/2 cup, depending on amount of remaining stuffing). Generously butter glass or ceramic baking dish. Spoon remaining stuffing into dish. Cover with buttered foil, buttered side down. Bake stuffing in dish alongside turkey until heated through, about 30 minutes. Uncover stuffing. Bake until top is just crisp and golden, about 15 minutes. To bake all of stuffing in baking dish: Preheat oven to 350F. Generously butter 13x9x2-inch square glass or ceramic baking dish.

Uncover and bake until top is crisp and golden, about 20 minutes longer. Makes 12 servings. Bon Appetit November 1999 Converted by MC_Buster.

A Message from our Provider:
“Let Him therefore send and do what He will. By His grace, if we are His, we will face it, bow to it, accept it, and give thanks for it. God’s Providence is always executed in the ‘wisest manner’ possible. We are often unable to see and understand the reasons and causes for specific events in our lives, in the lives of others, or in the history of the world. But our lack of understanding does not prevent us from believing God. #Don Fortner”
