JOAN'S CHRISTMAS BAKE


ingredients

2 to 3 slices bread, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 lb. bulk sausage (Jimmy Dean type), cooked
6 eggs
2 c. milk
1/2 tsp. mustard
dash of Tabasco (optional)
1 c. or more shredded Cheddar cheese
1/2 tsp. each salt and pepper

preparation

Place bread cubes in shallow baking dish. Top with cooked sausage (lumps broken up) and grated cheese. For a special treat, make this with Cracker Barrel New York Cheddar. This is a flexible recipe. I have used as many as 10 to 12 eggs, more milk, etc., and up to 1 pound of sausage. I think it tastes better with more cheese.
