Old Fashioned Chicken Dressing - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (4 lb.) fryer, cut up (I buy extra pkg. of gizzards and livers to boil with fryer for Giblet Gravy)
    3 Tbsp. margarine (add to fryer to make broth richer)
    6 c. cornbread (for dressing)
    3 c. chopped onions
    2 bunches chopped green onions
    1 1/2 c. chopped celery
    1 medium chopped bell pepper
    3 eggs
    2 c. light bread or 2 c. leftover biscuits
    sage to taste
    salt and black pepper to taste
    1 small can Pet milk
    sweet milk
    chicken broth
Preparation
    Mix well all ingredients, except Pet milk and milk.
    Add Pet milk and some of the chicken broth (save 3 cups chicken broth for Giblet Gravy).
    Add sweet milk, enough to make a medium to thin mixture (depending upon how moist a dressing you desire).
    Mix well.
    Taste to see if you have enough salt and sage.
    Remove 2 cups of the mixture, put this to the side for the Giblet Gravy. Pour dressing in a large well-greased roasting pan.
    (I use margarine.)
    Put a pan of water under your dressing when baking, this will keep from getting too brown on bottom.
