Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb breakfast sausage
  • 6 cups cubed bread about 8 slices
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 green onions sliced (optional garnish)

Method
 

  1. Grease a 9x13-inch dish; to make ahead, prepare through step 4 and refrigerate overnight.
  2. Cook sausage in a large skillet over medium about 8 minutes until browned and crumbled; drain grease and set aside.
  3. Spread bread evenly in dish; top with sausage and cheese.
  4. Whisk eggs, milk, mustard, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder in a large bowl; pour evenly over bread.
  5. Press gently with a spatula so bread absorbs eggs; cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes or overnight.
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F; remove casserole from refrigerator while oven heats.
  7. Bake uncovered 40-45 minutes until center sets and top is golden brown; stand 5 minutes, garnish with optional green onions, and serve warm.
