It's Not Your Grandma's Cookbook

LAST NIGHT’S BREAKFAST

This is a great breakfast casserole that I got from my mother-in-law. This recipe is made the night before and is super easy. The side column is a more health version.

Ingredients:
8 slices of bread, cubed (use whole wheat bread)
2 lb. ground sausage or bacon (use low fat ground sausage)
2 ¼ c. milk (use fat free milk)
¾ t. dry mustard
¾ lb. grated cheddar cheese (use low fat mozzarella cheese)
5 eggs (use 3 eggs & 2 servings of egg beaters)
1 t. salt
1 can cream of mushroom soup (use low fat cream of mushroom soup)
Directions:
Night Before:
Crumble sausage and brown. Divide cubed bread, browned sausage and cheese into half. In a large casserole dish, place the first layer (bread, cheese, sausage); then repeat another layer with the remaining bread, cheese and sausage. Set aside.
In another bowl, beat eggs, than add milk, salt, mustard and soup. Pour over the layers of bread, cheese and sausage. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
The next day bake at 325 degrees for 60 minutes.

  1. Laure i love your blog so far (and you!) It conjures up all the questions in my mind about you. Like where did she go to school? Does she have a college degree? Where did she grow up? And so on and so on it goes. Not to scare you off or anything,but I may need to ask a few of these questions at our beach trip!
