Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground breakfast sausage
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp dry mustard
  • 6 slices bread, cubed
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Cook the sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned. Drain excess fat.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and dry mustard.
  3. Layer the bread cubes in a greased baking dish. Sprinkle cooked sausage and cheese over the bread.
  4. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the top.
  5. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  7. Bake uncovered for 45-50 minutes or until set and golden brown.
  8. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, add diced bell peppers or mushrooms. This casserole can also be baked immediately after preparation, but resting overnight allows flavors to blend beautifully.
