Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups milk

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Spray a 9x13-inch pan with cooking spray. Place cubed bread into the bottom of the prepared pan.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Place on top of bread.

Step 4

Mix eggs, milk, dry mustard, salt, and pepper together in a bowl and pour over sausage. Top with Cheddar cheese.

Step 5

Refrigerate for 8 hours, or overnight.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven until set, about 45 minutes. Place foil over top the last 15 minutes to prevent the cheese from hardening.
