> For those curious about the eggs in dressing. It’s not just one. The dressing is eggy like bread pudding, but savory. My husband doesn’t like bread pudding and he doesn’t like my mom’s/grandmother’s recipe, so I don’t make it.

> Grandma’s recipe:  
> Giblets (minus the liver)  
> 4 onions  
> celery cut up  
> salt & pepper  
> large loaf white bread  
> 8 eggs  
> 1 quart milk  
> Broth from turkey

> It’s normally baked it in two pans. And one of those pans would get a jar of cut up oysters as well.
