Assembly instructions:

  3. In a large skillet, sauté onion and celery in butter over medium heat until just starting to soften, approx. 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Pour onion mixture into bread. Gently combine onion mixture and bread cubes.
  5. In small sessions, pausing to gently mix, sprinkle poultry seasoning and more salt and pepper evenly throughout the bread and onion mixture.
  6. Again, pausing to gently mix, slowly add chicken broth.
  7. Place mixture in buttered 8x8 foil pan and top with plastic wrap and foil. Freeze. Alternatively, the mixture can be placed in a large freezer bag.
  8. Gently remove excess air without flattening bread cubes. Seal and freeze.
