If you are starting with a fresh loaf of bread, cut it into 1 inch pieces. Let dry out for 3 days. If you don't have the time you can put it in the oven at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.

Place the bread cubes in a 9 x 13 baking dish. Add the fresh and dried herbs and toss to combine.

Melt 8 tablespoons of butter over medium heat in a large skillet.

Add the celery and onions and saute for 10 minutes or until softened.

Add in the chicken broth and garlic and mix well. 

Pour over top of the bread cubes and mix well to combine.  Season with salt and pepper.

At this point you can cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking.

When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place in the oven and cook for 20-30 minutes.
