Sausage-Mushroom Breakfast Bake

My Mom got this recipe from her trusty Taste of Home subscription, courtesy of one Diane B. from Ludlow, Massachusetts. I think our family has been receiving Taste of Home since I was eleven years old. Nothing like testing out home-cooked goodness from across the country!


Ingredients

1 pound bulk pork sausage (try to get local or organic if you can.)
2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
6 cups cubed bread
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup chopped fresh tomatoes
10 eggs, lightly beaten
3 cups milk
2 teaspoons ground mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper


Directions

In a large skillet, cook sausage and mushrooms over medium heat until meat is no longer pink, then drain off excess fat.

2. Place half of the bread cubes in a greased 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking dish; top with 2 cups sausage mixture and half of the cheese and tomatoes. Repeat layers. In a large bowl, combine the eggs, milk, mustard, salt and pepper; pour over bread mixture.

3. Bake, uncovered, at 350°F for 50-55 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Voila! Breakfast for the gang, and maybe some lunch too.
