Thanks to Liz for sharing this breakfast casserole with eggs and cheese.

Cook Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 12 slices thin sliced bread
  • 1/2 cup softened butter
  • 3/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack Cheese
  • 3/4 cup shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • 2 1/2 cups milk
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
  • 5 large eggs, slightly beaten

Preparation:

Butter bread and cut in fingers. Layer in glass loaf pan alternating with the cheeses. Add seasonings to milk and mix together with eggs. Pour over bread and let stand in refrigerator overnight. Bake at 350° until lightly browned and puffed, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
