   • In a large bowl, add the dry bread cubes.
   • Add the cooked vegetable mixture, along with sage, Italian seasoning, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
   • Gradually add chicken broth, just enough to moisten the bread without making it mushy. Stir well.
   • Add the beaten eggs and mix to combine.

3. Slow Cooker:

   • Transfer the stuffing mixture to the slow cooker and cover.
   • Cook on HIGH for 45 minutes, then reduce the heat to LOW and cook for an additional 4 to 6 hours.

4. Serve:

   • Once done, serve and enjoy the savory, flavorful stuffing!

This stuffing will have a great balance of herbs, vegetables, and moistness from the broth. It’s a perfect dish to make ahead and let the slow cooker do the work. Enjoy! Let me know if you need any adjustments!
