Day old french bread


This is a very simple recipe and can be made with a variety of things. It does not have to be made with day old french bread either, you can use sliced bread. I would recommend removing the crust off of sliced bread.

Breakfast Savory Bread Pudding
cubed bread, enough to fill bottom of casserole dish
grated cheese
6-8 eggs
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon Dijon
salt and pepper

now this is where it can be customized to your likings. I usually add diced ham and caramelized onions, but you can do anything, really. 

mix the egg, milk, mustard and s/p together and pour over bread and toppings. All of the liquid will be absorbed. Let sit overnight. Bake at 400 for 20 minutes covered and 10 minutes uncovered. 

**IDEAS**
- sweet corn, roasted pepper
-bacon, tomato, onions, avocado
-sausage, potatoes, spinach
-zucchini, eggplant, tomatoes
