Ingredients
- 10 cups cubed sourdough or French bread
- 1 large onion, finely diced
- 2 cups finely chopped celery (about 3-4 stalks)

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- On a baking sheet, spread the cubed bread and toast in the oven for about 10-15 minutes until lightly golden and crisp.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and celery, and sauté until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in the chopped herbs and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- In a large bowl, combine the toasted bread cubes with the sautéed veggies and herbs.
- Pour in the broth and gently mix until the bread is soaked but not mushy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes to achieve a crispy top.
