How to Make Cheese And Sausage Breakfast Casserole

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch glass baking dish.
In the prepared dish, place 6 cups of cubed bread (day-old bread works best).
Evenly distribute 1 pound of cooked sausage crumbles over the bread cubes.
Sprinkle 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese over the sausage.
In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1 1/2 cups milk, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, and 1 teaspoon salt.
Season the egg mixture with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Gently pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage and cheese.
Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the casserole is puffed and golden brown, and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the casserole stand for 10 minutes before cutting into squares and serving.
