* 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

2. In a large bowl, combine the cornbread, onion, celery, parsley, butter, eggs, chicken broth, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.

3. Pour the dressing mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish.

4. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the dressing is golden brown and cooked through.
