Ingredients
- 1 lb Italian Bread, day old, cut into small cubes
- 2 tbsp light butter
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and finely chopped
- 2 stalks celery, finely chopped
- 1 cup diced mushrooms
- 6 cloves garlic, minced, approximately 1 tablespoon
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 tsp dried sage
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried parsley
- 1 tsp salt, more or less, to taste

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9" x 13" baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
- Place a large pan with butter over medium heat.

- Combine the sautéed vegetables with the cubes of bread into a large mixing bowl.
- To a 2 cup (or larger) glass measuring cup or mixing bowl, add the eggs and whisk in the broth and seasonings.
- Pour broth mixture into the large bowl of bread and vegetables. Toss to thoroughly coat every cube of bread.
- Pour the stuffing mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading out into an even layer. Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes.
- Remove foil and return to bake an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and crispy.
- Garnish with additional parsley or thyme. Serve warm.
