Notes

It is recommended to leave the bread cubes out for a few hours, or overnight, so they get nice and dry; if not, just place them on a baking sheet; place in a pre-heated 350°F oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until they are dry but not toasted.
This recipe can be made the night before; cover and place in the refrigerator in an airtight container; remove from refrigerator 30 minutes prior to placing in the oven; follow instructions above for baking.
