	A festive stuffing with a little kick.   Directions Make cornbread according to package directions or use your favorite cornbread recipe. Allow to cool then cut into 1/2 inch chunks. Put bread cubes in a large mixing bowl. Add parsley, oregano and green onions. Toss together. Cook Italian sausage, breaking it up as it cooks. Add red pepper, onion, chipotle pepper in adobo sauce and cook until sausage is browned and vegetables are tender. Add to cornbread cubes in bowl, mix. Add in the turkey or chicken broth. Mix thoroughly. Allow to sit for a couple of minutes for the bread to absorb the liquid. The bread should be moist, not soggy. If dry, add 1/2 cup more liquid at a time. Taste mixture. Add salt and pepper if necessary. If you like it a little richer, add in 1/4 cup of melted butter or olive oil. Once satisfied with the flavor, add 2 large eggs, slightly beaten. Heat oven to 375°. Grease baking dish or spray with nonstick cooking spray.	2
