Breakfast Casserole

This isn't a quick recipe but it is a make ahead recipe.  We usually have this for breakfast on Christmas morning, but it does really well as a make ahead breakfast if you have company or, for us, a great dinner (or Dinfast if you're a Big Bang fan).  



Ingredients
6 eggs
1 tsp salt
4 slices cubed white bread, more or less depending on texture preferred
1 C grated cheddar or swiss cheese
2 C milk
1/2 tsp dry mustard
2 lbs mild or hot pork sausage
 
Instructions
Beat eggs. Add salt, milk and mustard. Mix well.
Slightly brown and drain sausage. Layer bread cubes, sausage and cheese in a greased 13 x 9 baking dish. Pour egg mixture over top. Refrigerate overnight.
Bake at 350 for 45 minutes.
If desired, casserole may be frozen. If so, bake for 30 minutes, cool and freeze. When ready to use, thaw in refrigerator overnight and reheat.

I always make a few adjustments to the recipe.  I add at least 6 pieces of bread if not more for a more substantial base and I half the sausage and use a container of mushrooms.  It lends itself to customization.
