- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 teaspoons ground sage
- 1 1/2 - 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
- Open the loaves of bread and allow the bread to get stale for a day.
- Tear the bread into 1-1/2" pieces including the crusts.
- Beat the eggs with the milk and water; sparingly, drizzle this mixture over the bread and mix it in just to moisten.

- Add the warm celery and butter mixture to the bread.
- Add the parsley and sprinkle in a little rubbed sage.
- Cover lightly with poultry seasoning.
- Gently toss with your hands.
- Gently push the stuffing mixture into the corner of your mixing pan and allow to sit for 30 minutes to absorb the liquid in the bread.
- Form the stuffing into small balls similar to a baseball.
- You may freeze the balls at this point by arranging on a baking sheet and flash freezing.
- When frozen, place stuffing balls in the bread bag wrappers.
- When ready to bake, place balls in a 9 x 13 inch pan with about 1/4" hot broth in the bottom of the pan.
- You can bake them frozen or defrosted, adjust your time accordingly.
- Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30 minutes, basting a few times until browned.
