Ingredients:

  • 12 to 16 ounces smoked andouille sausage, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup chopped red or green bell pepper
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley, optional
  • 4 slices bread torn in 1-inch pieces, or use 2 large croissants, sliced sandwich-style and torn
  • 2 medium tomatoes, diced
  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
  • salt and pepper

Preparation:

Heat oven to 350°. Butter a 2-quart baking dish.

In a large skillet, cook sliced sausage with the onion and bell pepper until vegetables are translucent. Whisk eggs with milk in a bowl with the Creole seasoning, pepper, and parsley, if using; set aside.

Arrange torn bread over the bottom of the buttered baking dish. Sprinkle with the sausage mixture and the diced tomatoes. Top with Cheddar cheese then pour the egg mixture evenly over the top. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until puffy and lightly browned.
Serves 6.

"Wow, I am not much of a casserole person, but I am seeing the light! Hey, this was gooood! We had this for breakfast and will have enough for a day or so more (there is just two of us). I was unsure about the tomatoes, but put them in there and everything else as described. The tomatoes were a nice plump addition to the peppers. My roommate liked it fairly well and he gets so picky about food. I never learned to cook as a young person from my mother, so here at forty I am finally getting a chance to venture out of my culinary comfort zone. Hey, casseroles for some folks can be an adventure."
