• 1. Preheat oven to 325 degree Gather ingredients. You can pull the bread apart the day before using, and let dry. Sometimes I do, and sometimes I don't. It really makes no difference.
• 2. In an extra large bowl, or I use a canner or turkey roasting pan; so to have enough room to mix. Pull apart bread into bite sized pieces. Add the salt, pepper, parsley and poultry seasoning. I use my hands to mix well throughout.
• 3. Now, chop the onion and celery. In a skillet or saucepan; saute the vegetables just till tender in butter or oil, I used butter, about 3 tablespoons.
• 4. Add the vegetables to the bread, along with the soups and broth. Mix well; again I use my hands. Next, whisk the eggs lightly and add to the bread. Melt the butter in a small saucepan, add to the bread; Mix well.
• 5. The bread should now have the texture when squeezed together of a meatball. If it is not staying together, I have added more broth , soup, or another egg or two. Now, make the stuffing balls to the size of your liking. Mine are about the size of the bottom of a small soup can in diameter.
• 6. Now, place in a greased roasting pan, I added a little chicken broth to the pan also. Bake 40 - 50 minutes; unless you are going to finish in a crock pot with gravy. If so, just cook long enough so that the egg in them cooks enough to hold them together; about 25 to 30 minutes.
