1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9" x 13" baking pan with cooking spray.

4. To the same pan, add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Saute leeks and celery with  1/2 teaspoon salt until soft (6-7 minutes). Transfer to bowl with mushrooms.
5. In the same pan, add stock, thyme, rosemary, and sage and simmer for 1 minute.
6. Transfer stock to the bowl of vegetables. Stir in the parsley, chives, and pepper. Set aside.
