Old-Fashioned Bread Stuffing

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb. loaf sliced, firm-type white bread (slices should be dried)
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1 medium carrot, diced
  • 2 medium stalks of celery, chopped
  • 1 large bay leaf
  • ½ cup lukewarm water
  • 1 egg, slightly beaten
  • 1 tsp. poultry seasoning
  • 3 Tablespoons unsalted margarine, melted

Instructions:

Combine onion, carrot, and celery in saucepan. Add water to cover. Add herbs and simmer until vegetable are done. Drain; discard cooking liquid. Refresh vegetables with cold water and discard bay leaf. Break dried bread slices into large bowl. Add lukewarm water, Tbsp at a time (enough to moisten). Drain vegetables from cold water. Add to bread and toss. Beat egg lightly with poultry seasoning. Add to bread mixture and toss. Add melted margarine to bread mixture and toss again. Place in a 2 quart casserole dish that has been sprayed with non-stick vegetable coating. Back in 350 degree oven for 25-30 minutes until stuffing is a little crusty on top.
