- 4 slices bread (stale is fine,
homemade or store-bought)
- 3 eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 to 2 cups shredded cheese
Grease up a 2-quart casserole. Tear the
bread into small bits and scatter it in the
casserole. In a bowl, combine the eggs,
milk, mustard and salt. Mix very well.
Sprinkle the cheese over the bread. Use as
much cheese as you like. When I am trying to
use up several bits of different cheeses,
this is the recipe I choose. Pour the milk
and egg mixture over the bread and cheese in
the casserole. Use clean hands to gently
press the cheese and bread down into the
milk mixture. Bake the dish at 375° for
about 30 minutes. It will be done when the
top is golden brown and puffed up. Serve hot
with steamed spinach and a hearty dessert,
like peach pie or apple cobbler. This recipe
serves 4.
