Ingredients

  • 12 slices bread
  • 2 2 cups colby or 16 slices American cheese
  • 1 lb ham, chopped (any breakfast meat would work) or 1 lb sausage (any breakfast meat would work)
  • 2 8 ounces sour cream or 8 ounces yogurt
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon ground mustard
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Line a 9x13 greased pan with 8 slices of bread and top with half of the cheese.
  2. Sprinkle meat over cheese. You could also use any other type of meat you prefer. Turkey bacon cooked and crumbled is good too!
  3. Mix eggs, milk or sour cream or yogurt, ground mustard, and salt and pepper in a bowl until well blended and pour over cheese.
  4. Top with the rest of the cheese and 8 more slices of bread, pressing down so the egg bubbles up and moistens it a little.
  5. Spray top of bread with butter flavored cooking spray or spread with a little butter covering the whole surface of the bread.
  6. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Bake at 350 F for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until the middle of casserole looks cooked. Knife inserted in middle will come out with melted cheese but not with 'wet' egg when done.
  7. Note: Like I said I made this recipe up for my meat and taters cowboy but you can add mushrooms, onions, green pepper etc. if desired. Just throw it into the meat layer.
