Notes
NOTE: Use a Jiffy corn muffin mix baked according to package directions, and a Jiffy biscuit mix baked according to package directions to get crumbs as needed for this recipe.
NOTE: You can also use about half of the ingredients to stuff a turkey. Place the remaining stuffing mixture into a small 1 ½ quart greased baking dish. Bake about 30 minutes or until done.
NOTE: I used 2 pkgs. Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix, 2 large eggs and 2/3 cup 2% milk. Spread in a greased 9x13” baking dish. I baked for 20-30 minutes at 400°. Allow cornbread to cool before breaking up into crumbs. You probably only need half of this amount to get the amount of crumbs needed for the recipe.
NOTE: I used 3 pkgs. Morrison’s Bis*Kits prepared biscuit mix plus 1 ½ cups milk. The biscuits must be lightly kneaded in flour before rolling out and forming biscuits. I kneaded about 1-2 minutes and ended up using almost a cup of flour to get the right consistency. Bake at 425° for about 10-12 minutes. Allow biscuits to cool before breaking into crumbs and using in this recipe. You probably only need half of this amount to get the amount of crumbs needed for the recipe.
NOTE: If desired, you can bake up refrigerated biscuits instead of using a mix.
NOTE: Preparation time does not include time required to make up cornbread or biscuits.
