  • ½ Teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 2 Eggs beaten
  • Parsley to garnish

Instructions

  • Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Stir in the sage, thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the herbs to release their flavours.

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the toasted bread cubes with the vegetable and herb mixture. Toss to combine evenly.
  • Pour the chicken or vegetable broth over the bread mixture and toss until well combined. Allow the bread to absorb the liquid. Stir in the beaten eggs, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
