Old-Fashioned Bread Stuffing

Prep: 15 min/ Total Time: 45 min/ Makes: 12-14 servings

1-1/2 C. chopped celery (about 3 stalks)
1 C. chopped onion
½ C. butter or margarine
1 Tbsp. snipped fresh sage OR 1 tsp. poultry seasoning or ground sage
¼ tsp. black pepper
12 cups dry bread cubes
1-1/2 cups chicken broth

Preheat oven to 325°F. In large skillet, cook celery and onion in hot butter until tender but not brown. Remove from heat. Stir in sage and pepper. Place bread cubes in large bowl; add onion mixture. Drizzle with enough chicken broth to moisten, tossing lightly to combine. Transfer bread mixture to a 2-quart casserole dish. Bake, covered, for 30-45 minutes or until heated through. Or use bread mixture to stuff a 10-12 lb. turkey. Reduce broth to ¾-1cup.
