Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) package Regular Flavor Jimmy Dean Pork Sausage

  • 10 eggs, lightly beaten

  • 3 cups milk

  • 2 teaspoons dry mustard

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 6 cups cubed bread

  • 2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)

  • 1 medium tomato, seeded and chopped (optional)

  • 1/2 cup thin-sliced green onion (optional)

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 325 F.
  • In large skillet, cook sausage over medium-high heat, stirring frequently until thoroughly cooked and no longer pink.
  • In large mixing bowl, combine eggs, milk, mustard and salt; stir well.
  • Distribute half the bread evenly in a buttered 9 x 13 x 2 inch baking dish. Sprinkle with half the pepper, half the cheese, half the sausage and half of each optional ingredient.
  • Repeat layering using remaining bread, pepper, cheese, sausage and optional ingredients.
  • Pour egg mixture evenly over casserole.
