  • 4 tbsp vegan butter

  • 1 cup non-dairy milk (coconut milk)

  • Pinch of salt

  • 1-2 tbsp of agave, maple syrup or monk fruit sugar for sweetener

  • Dressing

  • 1/2 tsp Rosemary

  • 1/2 tsp Sage

  • 1 tbsp of fresh Parsley

  • 1/2 tsp Thyme

  • 1 small chopped onion

  • 4 ribs of chopped from a stalk of celery

  • 1/2 tbsp Black pepper

  • 1/2 tbsp Sea salt

  • 2 cups of Vegetable broth

  • Protein

  • 1 package of Plant-based chicken

Directions

  • Dressing
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large pan, toast one loaf of Dave’s Killer Bread. Remove from the oven and let it cool.
  • Add bread to the blender and set it to the chop setting. Chop the bread into small chunks, rather than turning it into powder. (It is okay if some powder settles.)
  • Set aside in a large bowl
  • In another large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, and baking powder for the cornbread. Mix well.
  • In a separate bowl, prepare the flax egg (or applesauce) by mixing 1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal with 3 tablespoons of water. Let it sit for a few minutes until it thickens.
  • Add the flax egg (or applesauce), vegan butter, and non-dairy milk to the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Also, add salt and sweetener to the same bowl. Mix until well combined.
  • Pour the cornbread batter into a greased baking dish and spread it evenly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Set aside to cool.
  • 10. Once the cornbread has cooled, crumble it and mix into the large bowl containing the breadcrumbs to use mix in later for the dressing.
  • Protein
  • Heat skillet on medium high with your choice of oil (I’m using avocado oil).
  • Add protein to the mixture, along with rosemary, sage, parsley, thyme, chopped onion, chopped celery, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, and sea salt. Mix and cook until the protein is seared and the veggies are translucent.
  • Add breadcrumbs and cornbread mixture to the skillet, along with 1 cup of vegetable broth. Gradually add the second cup of broth as needed. The dressing should have a thick and pasty texture.
  • Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve the plant-based vegan dressing warm and enjoy!
