Ingredients

  • 1 loaf of crusty bread, torn into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 cups mushrooms, diced (like cremini or button)
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Sauté Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and celery, and sauté until softened (about 5 minutes). Stir in garlic and mushrooms, cooking until mushrooms are tender and release their moisture (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the torn bread, sautéed vegetables, fresh herbs, and vegetable broth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir until everything is well combined.
  4. Bake: Transfer the stuffing mixture to a greased baking dish. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes until the top is golden brown and crispy.
  5. Serve: Let the stuffing cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy it as a side dish or a flavorful component in other meals.
