The earthy mushrooms, combined with the savory bread, make for a delicious and satisfying side dish. This recipe is perfect for Thanksgiving or any other special occasion.

Ingredients

  • 8 cups crusty bread, cut into cubes
  • 1 lb mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 3 celery stalks, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  2. Spread the bread cubes on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until lightly golden and crispy. Remove from the oven and set aside.
  3. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, onion, celery, and garlic. Sauté until the mushrooms are golden brown and the vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes.
  4. Add the parsley, thyme, rosemary, and sage to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the herbs become fragrant.
  5. Transfer the toasted bread cubes to a large mixing bowl. Pour the sautéed mushroom mixture over the bread cubes and toss to combine.
  6. Gradually pour the vegetable broth over the bread mixture, stirring gently to ensure the bread absorbs the liquid.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Transfer the stuffing mixture to a greased baking dish and cover with aluminum foil.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the top is golden and crispy.
  10. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
