2. Use the drippings from the sausage to oil a medium to large rectangular Pyrex casserole dish or a tall, round casserole dish
3. Line the bottom of the dish with the cubed bread
4. Top bread with sausage and cheese
5. Mix together eggs, milk, salt, pepper and mustard.
6. Beat well until foamy and light

10. Bake casserole for 30 min or until casserole is set (firm when you touch the top)
11. Cut into squares and serve
12. Goes very nicely with pancakes or crepes on the side and even tastes good with maple syrup on top!
