Sausage Breakfast Casserole

Ingredients

• 1 lb bulk pork breakfast sausage
• 6 cups cubed French bread
• 10 large eggs
• 2 cups whole milk
• 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar
• 1 tsp dry mustard
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp chopped parsley

Instructions

1. 1

   Brown the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it into crumbles until fully cooked, about 8 minutes. Drain excess fat.

2. 2

   Grease a 9×13 baking dish and layer the cubed bread on the bottom.

3. 3

   Top the bread with cooked sausage and 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheddar.

4. 4

   Whisk eggs, milk, dry mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Pour evenly over the bread mixture.

5. 5

   Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight so the custard soaks in.

6. 6

   Bake uncovered at 350°F for 45–50 minutes until set and golden. Top with remaining cheese during the last 5 minutes. Rest, garnish with parsley, and serve.
