• salt and pepper to taste
• 2 stalks celery, chopped
• 2 carrots, chopped
• 1 (1 pound) loaf challah bread, sliced

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat the oil in a skillet, and cook and stir the chopped onion until translucent, about 10 minutes. Set the onion aside to cool.

Step 2

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch glass baking dish.

Step 3

Fill a bowl with warm water, and soak the challah, one slice at a time. Gently squeeze out the excess water, and place the challah in a large bowl. Mix in the cooked onion, carrots, and celery, and gently mix in the eggs. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 4

Spread stuffing in the prepared baking dish, cover with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven until cooked through and set, about 1 hour.
