Preparation

  • Finely dice the large onion and chop the celery into small pieces. Set them aside.

  • Stir in the fresh herbs (sage, thyme, and rosemary) and add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Transfer the onion and celery mixture into a large bowl with cubed bread.

Mix and Bake

  • Pour the low-sodium broth over the bread and vegetable mixture. Stir gently until all bread cubes are moistened but not soggy.
  • Transfer the stuffing into a baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Cover with foil and bake at 350°F for about 30 minutes.
  • Remove the foil for the last 10 minutes to achieve a crispy top.

Notes

To save prep time, consider using pre-diced onions and celery. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. To reheat, cover with foil and heat at 350°F until warmed through.
