How to Make Wife Saver Breakfast
- Grease a 11x13 inch baking pan.
- Remove crusts from 8-10 slices of bread and layer them evenly in the bottom of the prepared pan.
- Add a layer of 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, followed by 1 cup thinly sliced cooked ham, and then another layer of bread.
- Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1 teaspoon dry mustard, 1/4 cup finely minced yellow onion, 1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread, cheese, and ham layers.
- Cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
- In the morning, preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Melt 1/4 cup butter. Crush 2 cups of corn flakes. Mix the melted butter with crushed corn flakes and sprinkle evenly over the casserole.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the casserole is set and golden brown. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
