Ingredients
1/2 cup Unsalted butter (divided)
1/2 pound Crimini mushrooms
OR a mix of your favorite kinds
2 1/2 cups Onion (chopped)
2 1/2 cups Celery (chopped)
3 cloves Garlic (minced)
1 1/2 tablespoons Fresh sage (chopped)
1 1/2 tablespoons Fresh thyme (chopped)
1/4 cup Italian parsley (chopped )
1/8 teaspoon Grated nutmeg
1/2 cup Pecans (chopped)
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
1 pound Bread (cut into cubes)
1/2 teaspoon Pepper
2/3 cup White wine
1 cup Vegetable broth

Step by Step Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet, then saute the mushrooms for 6 to 8 minutes. Set them aside in a bowl.
  2. Melt 2 more tablespoons of butter in the same skillet, then add the onion, celery, garlic, sage, thyme, nutmeg, and salt. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat.
  3. Stir the veggie skillet mix, sauteed mushrooms, breadcrumbs, pecans together. Season with the salt and pepper.
  4. Melt the remaining butter, then stir it, the wine, and the vegetable broth in until nicely combined.
  5. Cover and bake the mixture for 45 minutes to 1 hour. If you want a particularly crunchy topping, raise the heat to 425 and uncover for the last 15 minutes of baking time. Serve topped with chopped parsley.
