Easy Weekend Breakfast Casserole

Last weekend Cory hosted a bachelor party for one of his closet friends, Rich. They were meeting at our house early Saturday morning before their tee time at a local golf course, so I volunteered to make breakfast for everyone since I knew the bachelor party wouldn't end after their round of golf ;). After consulting some of my facebook friends for a quick casserole recipe, I decided to improvise and throw together one of my very own! The guys loved it and I did, too. Most of the ingredients I already had at home, so it was a really affordable recipe to make for a large group. It would be perfect to ensure a lazy morning at home!

Ingredients:

6 eggs

2 cups of milk

1 pack shredded cheddar cheese

black pepper + salt

white bread, sliced

sausage (or bacon, but you can also go without)

13x9 baking dish

optional: diced peppers/tomato/onion

Recipe:

• Spray or grease your baking dish.
• Cut the crusts off of 8 slices of white bread (it has to be white bread, btw) and lay them in the bottom of the baking dish so the entire bottom is covered. 
• Spread the entire pack of shredded cheese across the bread.
• Brown and crumble sausage. Spread sausage on top of the cheese and bread.
• In a medium bowl, whisk 6 eggs, milk, black pepper/salt to taste, and 2 cups of milk.
• If you choose, you could add the veggies into your egg mix at this point.
• Pour the egg mixture on top of sausage/cheese/bread in baking dish.
• Let sit over night in refrigerator.
• Next morning, let it sit for about 20 minutes while oven is preheating to 350 degrees. 
• Bake for 35-45 minutes or until egg is golden yellow.
• Let sit for about 5 minutes before cutting and serving. 

Enjoy!
