2
teaspoons
Dijon mustard
1
pound
diced ham
1
onion
diced
1
green bell pepper

1

9
slices
white bread
torn into pieces
1
cup
shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1
cup

Green onions for garnish
Instructions
Whisk together your eggs, milk, and Dijon mustard in a medium bowl.
9 eggs,
3 cups milk,
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
Reserve a quarter of your diced red and green bell pepper.
1 green bell pepper,
1 red bell pepper
Add ham, onion, peppers, and bread to the egg mixture.
1 pound diced ham,
1 onion,
9 slices white bread
Butter or spray a 9x13 casserole dish. Pour in the mixture.
Top the casserole with the cheeses and the reserved bell peppers.
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese,
1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge overnight or up to 12 hours.
When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Let the casserole sit on the counter for 30 minutes to take the chill off while the oven preheats.
Bake the casserole at 350 for 55-60 minutes. If it begins to brown too quickly, cover it with foil.
Green onions for garnish
Notes
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days.
You can swap out the meat in this dish; try it with breakfast sausage or bacon!
You can spice this up by adding diced jalapenos or green chiles.
Use whatever cheese you like. Swiss also works well.
I use sandwich bread, but any bread would work. Try croissants, Italian bread, or brioche, or add more than one kind of bread!
