How to Make Baked Breakfast Sandwich

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Trim crusts from 16 slices of bread and butter both sides.
  3. Arrange 8 slices of buttered bread, butter-side down, in a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
  4. Sprinkle 2 cups of shredded sharp cheddar cheese over the bread.
  5. In a large skillet, cook 1 pound of bacon until crispy. Remove bacon, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon grease. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/2 cup chopped celery, and 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper to the skillet and sauté until softened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Pour the bacon and vegetable mixture evenly over the cheese.
  7. Arrange 8 slices of tomato (about 2 medium tomatoes, sliced) over the bacon mixture.
  8. Top with the remaining 8 slices of buttered bread, butter-side up.
  9. In a medium bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1 cup of milk, and 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard.
  10. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread.
  11. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded sharp cheddar cheese over the top.
  12. Cover the pan with foil and refrigerate overnight (optional, but recommended for better flavor).
  13. Bake, uncovered, for 50-60 minutes, or until golden brown and the egg mixture is set.
  14. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting and serving. Enjoy with your favorite sides!
