Ingredients You Will Need for This Sausage Breakfast Casserole

• 12 Eggs
• White Sandwich bread (It soaks up the custard without being soggy) preferably 6

• 2 cups of orange or white cheese
• 2 teaspoons of mustard (that is dry)
• 1½ teaspoon of Salt
• ½ teaspoon Black pepper 
• 2 cups of half-and-half (This is an equal mixture of food and beverages)
• 1 tablespoon of olive oil

Method of Preparing Sausage Casserole With Bread

First, shred your white or orange cheese finely. If you want you can purchase pre-shredded cheese

Then move on to make the custard. If you are an amateur in the food niche you might wonder what custard is.

 It is a thick mixture of cheese or milk and eggs. In some recipes, you can add flour or cornstarch. Custards range from premium to regular and low fat.

To make the custard crash your eggs in a bowl that is coated with olive oil? Then whisk together with salt, pepper, half-and-half, and the dry mustard.

Then move to cook your sausage in moderate heat. They should be cooked until they are into small pieces and turn slightly brown. This should take 7 minutes and later set them aside.

After the sausage, add them to the custard mixture together with a half portion of the cheese. At last, add your sandwich bread. Stir to mix the content thoroughly.

When the mixture is ready pour it onto the baking dish and sprinkle the remaining portion of cheese. Bake the casserole for 50-55 minutes until it turns golden brown. 

Your sausage breakfast with bread meal is ready. Allow it cool for 10 minutes and they serve it with your preferred beverage.

Pre-making the Sausage Breakfast Casserole With Bread

If you prefer meal preparation you will still use the same procedure but do not back the mixture. Cook your sausages, make the custard, and add the cooked sausages, sandwich bread, and cheese.

When the casserole mixture is ready, cover with aluminum foil and store it in the fridge for up to 24 hours.  When you want to bake it, uncover the aluminum foil. Baking without the foil ensures that the top turns golden brown.

Sausage breakfast casserole with bread is a good option. You can also make it if you take it alone. When using the portion, divide them into small portions.
