Total Time: 55 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 45 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 6
• 12 slices bread
• 2 cups cheddar cheese or 2 cups colby or 16 slices american cheese
• 1 lb ham, chopped (any breakfast meat would work) or 1 lb sausage (any breakfast meat would work)
• 2 cups milk or 8 ounces sour cream or 8 ounces yogurt
• 6 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon ground mustard
• salt and pepper

Recipe

• 1 line a 9x13 greased pan with 8 slices of bread and top with half of the cheese.
• 2 sprinkle meat over cheese. you could also use any other type of meat you prefer. turkey bacon cooked and crumbled is good too!
• 3 mix eggs, milk or sour cream or yogurt, ground mustard, and salt and pepper in a bowl until well blended and pour over cheese.
• 4 top with the rest of the cheese and 8 more slices of bread, pressing down so the egg bubbles up and moistens it a little.
• 5 spray top of bread with butter flavored cooking spray or spread with a little butter covering the whole surface of the bread.
• 6 cover and refrigerate overnight. bake at 350 f for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until the middle of casserole looks cooked. knife inserted in middle will come out with melted cheese but not with ‘wet’ egg when done.
• 7 note: like i said i made this recipe up for my meat and taters cowboy but you can add mushrooms, onions, green pepper etc. if desired. just throw it into the meat layer.
