Breakfast casserole


Mandi sent this recipe to the group. By the time I ended up changing things for what I did and didn't have on hand it was totally different LOL We liked it but I don't think I'd make it again because of the bread portion...the texture ends up weird for me.

I put mushrooms and red bell pepper in just to add some fresh veggies but then I went to get the cheddar and didn't have any so I subbed mozzarella and cheddar would have been much better!

Breakfast Sausage Casserole

1 pkg. (16 oz.) fresh breakfast sausage, cooked, drained and crumbled
4 cups cubed day-old bread
2 cups (8 oz.) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
2 cans (12 fl. oz. each) Evaporated Milk
10 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 tsp dry mustard
1/4 tsp onion powder
Ground black pepper to taste

1 Grease 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Place bread in prepared bakingdish. Sprinkle with cheese. Combine evaporated milk, eggs, dry mustard, onionpowder and pepper in medium bowl. Pour evenly over bread and cheese. Sprinklewith sausage. Cover; refrigerate overnight.

2 Preheat oven to 325° F.

3 Bake for 55 to 60 minutes or until cheese is golden brown. Cover with foil if top browns too quickly.

Servings: 8
