How to Make Sausage Mushroom Breakfast Casserole

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet, brown 1 lb. Italian sausage (removed from casings) over medium heat. Drain off excess grease.
  3. Add 8 oz. sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. In a 9x13 inch baking dish, layer 6 cups torn crusty bread.
  5. Evenly distribute the cooked sausage and mushrooms over the bread.
  6. Sprinkle 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese over the sausage and mushrooms.
  7. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups milk, 6 large eggs, and 1 tbsp Dijon mustard.
  8. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the cheese.
  9. In a separate bowl, combine one (10.75 oz) can cream of mushroom soup and 1/2 cup milk. Pour this mixture evenly over the casserole.
  10. Cover the baking dish with foil and refrigerate overnight.
  11. The next morning, remove the casserole from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking.
  12. Bake uncovered for 60-75 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
