This was a total comfort food experience. The blend of flavors--onion, peppers, and squash--was awesome. Add the soft texture and taste of the cornbread and you have a truly great side dish or main dish. Yum Yum!! Thanks Nurse Di. Delightful!

What a great side dish. The only change I made was to double the salt and pepper amounts for my family's preference. The vegetables and cornbread went together well to make a soft, tender flavorful dressing. Thanks for sharing this.

This was a huge hit at vegetarian night. Moist dressing with loads of yummy vegetables. Well seasoned. Too much for an 11x7 pan. I used 13 x 9 inch pan.

I made this for our family Thanksgiving dinner. It was a very big hit. I made the cornbread the night before which made things less hectic. I think the cream soup made the dressing very moist. A very tasty side dish that went well with out turkey and cranberry sauce. Thanks Nurse Di.
