2 cups chestnuts

1 1/2 cups margarine

1/2 cup chopped onion

1 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

2 teaspoons poultry seasoning

2 (1 pound) loaves day-old bread, cubed

3 eggs

1/4 cup milk

With a sharp knife, cut slits in the surface of the chestnuts. Place chestnuts in a medium saucepan with enough water to cover, and bring to a boil. Cook 25 minutes, or until tender. Drain, peel, and chop.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Melt margarine in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in chestnuts, onion, salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning, and cook until onions are tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a medium baking dish, and mix with the cubed bread.

In a small bowl, beat together eggs and milk, and drizzle over the cubed bread mixture.

Bake 30 to 45 minutes in the preheated oven, until surface is crisp and lightly browned.
