Easy and quick to assemble. We vary the ingredients to whatever is in the pantry, ie: low fat cheeses, milk, even will add jalapeños, tomatoes, green beans and corn. Whatever happens to be available. Will substitute 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper for the black pepper for a touch more fire. Play with the ingredients as you prefer. It just comes out great each time. Ingredients:
5 cups french bread, cut into 1 inch cubes |
3/4 cup onion, chopped |
8 slices bacon, cooked crisp, drained and crumbled |
2 cups cheddar cheese, grated |
1 cup mozzarella cheese, grated |
1 cup cottage cheese |
1 1/2 cups milk |

1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
1 teaspoon black pepper |
