Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Cut Italian bread into cubes, and leave it out on the counter for a day or two until it’s stale (or bake at 200 degrees F for an hour or so).
In a skillet, add onion, carrot, celery, and butter over medium heat. Once everything is softened (about 10 minutes), add sage and mix for about a minute.
In a bowl, add bread and veggie mixture and toss gently. Then drizzle up to 2 cups of broth over the bread mixture until it’s moistened but not soggy. Add to a square casserole dish and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Bake for 30 minutes, covered. Then, take off the cover and bake for another 10 minutes.

Notes

To make it ahead, just wait to bake it until the day of. It can sit in the refrigerator for two days uncooked, or you can freeze it and unthaw it overnight before you bake it.
