Equipment

  • Large Pot
  • 13 x 9 baking dish
  • Aluminum Foil

Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 6 cloves garlic
  • 2 cups Vegetable Stock or unsalted chicken stock
  • 1 teaspoon Herbes de Provence

  • 1/2 cup walnuts

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Notes

Low Sodium Bread

I like to bake my own bread at home so I can control the amount of salt in the dish. You can use homemade bread, or a store-bought loaf for this recipe.
    • Always check the ingredient labels to make sure the sodium content fits in with your dietary needs. This recipe is written as low sodium, but that is because I used a low sodium homemade bread and no-sodium stock... your ingredients may vary.
    • The lowest sodium bread I have found at the store is Ezekiel's No Salt Added Bread, which I can find in the frozen section, and has 0mg sodium per slice.
    • Bread Buying tip! I've found that sourdough bread typically has less sodium than other kinds of bread, so even buying store bought can be OK for those cutting back on their sodium intake, again, check labels first.
  • If you are gluten free, make sure you choose a gluten free loaf to cube up for this recipe.
