Ingredients
- 13-15 cups dry bread cubes* about 2 1 pound loaves (We like to use a heavier bread such as French bread so it soaks up more juice)

- 1 cup diced yellow onion
- 2 1/4 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 tablespoons poultry seasoning

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Spray a 2 quart casserole or 9x13" baking dish with cooking spray.
- In a large skillet, sauté the onion and celery in the butter over medium-high heat for 10-12 minutes, or until the onion and celery are tender. 1 1/2 cups unsalted butter, 1 cup chopped celery, 1 cup diced yellow onion
- Place the bread cubes in a large bowl. 13-15 cups dry bread cubes*
- Pour the butter, onion and celery mixture over the bread cubes and mix. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. 2 1/4 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon ground black pepper, 1 1/2 tablespoons poultry seasoning, 1 1/2 cups chicken stock, 2 large eggs
- Spread the stuffing evenly in the prepared baking dish. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown.
- Garnish with fresh parsley or other fresh herbs such as rosemary if desired.
Notes
- *I like to make my own dried bread cubes . Two days before preparing the stuffing, I cut bread into 1" cubes, then allow them to dry in a big bowl for about 48 hours. Stir the bread cubes once or twice a day so they dry out evenly. They should be dry so they soak up the liquid in the recipe.
- *We say to use 13-15 cups of bread cubes. This is homemade dry bread cubes that still have a little bit of softness to them. Make sure the bread cubes are tightly packed into the cup. Don't drop them in so there is a lot of air around them, but press them down into the cup (even dried homemade bread cubes will press down in a little). This will help make sure you have enough bread to soak up the liquid. If you like a drier stuffing or if you use store bought crispy bread cubes, use more.**
