This is my mother-in-law's tried and true recipe. It definitely is not healthy, but is so good. We like to have this on Christmas morning. Hey, once a year isn't going to hurt! The time to make includes overnight refrigeration. Ingredients:
1 lb sausage |
8 slices bread |
1 teaspoon prepared mustard |
2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese |
5 eggs |
1 1/4 cups milk |
1/8 teaspoon black pepper |
3/4 cup half-and-half |
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
cayenne pepper |
Directions:
1. Cook, drain, and crumble the sausage.
2. Trim crusts from bread and place 4 slices on bottom of 9 X 13 baking dish. You may need to cut the bread so all slices fit in the bottom of the dish.
3. Mix cooked sausage with mustard and spread over the bread in the baking dish.
4. Sprinkle 1 cup of the cheese over the sausage.
5. Put the remaining 4 slices of bread over the cheese.
6. Sprinkle remaining 1 cup of cheese over the bread.
7. In a separate bowl, mix the eggs, milk, half-and-half, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and cayenne pepper. Beat lightly.
8. Pour egg mixture over the assembled casserole.
9. Cover the baking dish with foil and refrigerate overnight.
10. The next morning, remove the foil and bake the casserole at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes or until fluffy and brown.
