Squirrel & Dressing
~ 3 - 4 young squirrels
~ 2 sticks butter or margarine
~ 1 large onion, chopped
~ 2 loaves white bread, toasted
~ milk
~ 1 dozen eggs
~ 1 box dehydrated vegetable soup (2 pouches)
Clean and remove all hair and shot from squirrels, only the front and hind legs are used. Parboil them in a pan of water on the stove until the meat is tender and falling off the bone. Remove the meat and set aside.
Melt the 2 sticks of butter or margarine in a saute pan, add the chopped onion. Saute until the onion is tender.
In a mixing bowl place the toasted bread, add enough milk to soften it. Add the sauted onion/butter mixture, the dozen eggs, and the squirrel meat. To this add one package of the dry soup mix. Take the other package and with a slotted spoon remove and add the dry vegetable flakes. (You don’t want to add all the powder from this package into your dressing, it’ll make it too salty!)
Mix all the ingredients together well.
Place in a 9 x 13 cake pan.
Bake at 350 degree oven for 1 1/2 hours.
Serve and Enjoy!
