Breakfast Casserole
Perfect for busy family mornings – a make ahead!
It bakes while everyone gets ready for his or her day.
INGREDIENTS
• 4 slices of your favorite wholesome bread
• 1/2 teaspoon dried minced onion
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard powder
• ½ Cup milk
• 4 eggs, lightly beaten
• 1 Cup cheddar cheese, grated
• Optional – 8 slices cooked & crumbled bacon
Combine all ingredients except bacon and cheese.
Lay the bread in the bottom of a lightly greased 8-inch square baking dish and pour the egg mixture over the bread.
If using it, top with the crumbled bacon.
Cover your casserole and refrigerate overnight.
In the morning: take it out of the fridge when your family first wakes, and bring it to room temperature (1/2 hour) while your oven preheats to 350F.
Bake for 30 minutes, top with the cheddar cheese and return to the oven for a few more minutes. Remove casserole and let it stand for ten minutes (give or take) to set.
Bon appetit!
