I usually have most of this on hand and with OMAC always have spaghetti sauce to use - other then just for spaghetti Recipe Source: Trisha Kruse Ingredients:
10 slices day-old bread |
1 lb mild italian sausage, casings removed |
1 medium onion, diced |
1 cup sliced mushrooms |
1 cup red pepper, diced |
8 ounces shredded monterey jack cheese |
8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese |
8 eggs |
3 cups whole milk |
1 tablespoon italian seasoning |
2 teaspoons finely minced garlic |
1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste) |
pepper, to taste |
2 cups prepared spaghetti sauce, warmed |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F; grease a 13-by-9-inch pan.
2. Trim crusts from bread and cube.
3. Crumble sausage into a large skillet; sauté with onion, mushrooms and pepper. Place half the bread cubes in prepared pan, top with half the sausage mixture and half the cheese; repeat layers.
4. In a medium bowl whisk eggs, milk, Italian seasoning, garlic and salt; pour over the filled casserole. Let stand 15 minutes so bread can soak up egg mixture.
5. Bake for 60 to 70 minutes or until set. Let stand 10 minutes, cut into squares and serve drizzled with warm spaghetti sauce.
