1 TBls fresh rosemary minced fine
2/3 cup fresh parsley mince fine
1 tsp dry poultry season
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper

If the bread isn't stale, put on large sheet pan, mix with some olive oil, salt and pepper and bake on 250 degrees for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
in a large pot melt butter and soften onions and celery. Don't brown
Add seasons to butter, onions and celery once they are softened.
Add bread crumbs to the pot.
Slowly add the stock around a half of a cup at a time. Stir after each 1/2 cup of stock.
the last 1 cup of stock add in the eggs to the 1 cup of stock and mix.
Slowly add the eggs and stock mixture to the bread and stir until well combined
Add the dressing to a well buttered pan. 9x13 or larger if you want it flatter.
When ready to bake, blot 1/4 c butter slices on top of casserole spread out
cover with tin foil and bake 30 minutes cover in a 350 degree oven
Uncover after 30 minutes and make 15-20 minutes
NOTE: The dressing was better the next day. So maybe bake it the day before and reheat the next day maybe adding chicken broth or turkey juice to make it not so dry.
My Sage and rosemary was fresh from my garden this year 2020.
