Sausage Bake

We always are looking for something new to serve guests and always fall for the same old thing. If you are looking for something new to try, here it is. This recipe is 20 plus years old, given to me by a neighbor when we first moved to B.C.

 

  • 2 lbs. cooked and drained pork sausage meat (Italian, if you choose)
  • 12 well beaten eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 cup cream
  • 4 or more slices of cubed bread
  • 2 cups shredded cheese ( your choice) Monteray Jack is really good, if fresh
  • 3/4 tsp. dry mustard

Combine the meat, eggs, milk/cream, bread, cheese and mustard.  Add a pinch of salt and pepper and pour into a buttered 9 x 13 inch baking dish. If you wish, add more cheese on top.

Cover and refrigerate overnight and in the morning, remove from the regrigerator and let sit for about 30 minutes before baking in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes or until set. Let sit for a couple of minutes before serving.

Cut and serve with slices of fresh fruit, juice and coffee. Voila! You did it again. Damn!
