Recipe FUN!!!



Breakfast Casserole for Christmas morning! :-)

     I love cooking and baking!  I found a great cookbook that I absolutely love to use.
     There's some amazing and delicious recipes in this book and everyone of them I've made have been keepers.  :-)
     There's some great everyday of the year recipes and some great ones to make during the holiday season as well.


I made breakfast this year for Christmas morning from my wonderful Point of Grace cookbook. I made a very delicious pull-apart bread that complemented my breakfast casserole I made very well. Defiantly two more recipes that are keepers! :-)

Pull-Apart Bread!  :-)

This is a great recipe for breakfast when you are have guests staying with you, having company over for breakfast, or if you just want something easy to make for your family to give you a great breakfast!  It's really easy also!  You can prepare it the night before and take it out in the morning and put it straight into the oven for 30-40 minutes.  While that is baking.  You can brew the coffee and set the table up.  You can put out some fruit (whatever is in season) to go with this casserole as well, for a little added sweetness. :-)  This recipe also goes good with a Pull-Apart Bread for a little bit of sweetness to breakfast as well! (which comes from the back of the frozen Bridgeford Bread Rolls)

Breakfast Casserole

<!  6 Slices white bread

<!  1 pound mild sausage

<!  6 eggs

<!  12 oz. sharp cheddar cheese, graded

<   2 cups half and half

<!  ½ t. salt

<!  ½ t. pepper

<!  1 t. dry mustard

     1.  Trim crusts from bread.
2.  Butter bread and cut into fourths.

     3.  Line bottom of 9x13 dish with bread.

     4.  Brown sausage and drain well.

     5.  Sprinkle sausage over bread.
6.  Top with cheese.
7.  Beat eggs and add remaining ingredients.
8.  Cover and chill for 8 hours or overnight.
9.  Bake for 20-25 minutes on 350 – starting in a cold oven (not preheated).

Serves 10-12.

**Optional**you can use Texas Toast (whole slices) and line the bottom of the dish as well.  If you want you can add 4 more eggs to make up for the extra bread added.  Both ways still make a great breakfast casserole.

**if it looks like the casserole needs to bake longer, try adding 5-10 to the baking time.
