Breakfast Casserole?

I give this 4 out of 5 stars. Very good but lacks a "wow" factor. Maybe it needs another ingredient? Onions? Mushrooms? Chopped Spinach? Cilantro? Salsa? Jalapenos?

See what ya'll can come up with...






Recipe For Breakfast Casserole

8 oz of Ciabatta Bread, cut into 1"cubes
1 lb of chicken breakfast sausage
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1 1/4 Cup Milk (We used rice milk)
1 Cup of Cheddar Cheese, Grated
6 Large eggs or
2 Large eggs and a carton of egg beaters (8oz)
2 Tbl Chopped Parsley

The Night Before:
Heat oven to 400. Arrange bread cubes in single layer on a baking sheet and bake for about 8 Minutes until bread is toasty. In a medium skillet cook sausage until brown, stirring to crumble. Combine sausage, bread & onions in a large bowl. In another bowl combine milk, cheese and eggs and whisk. Pour egg/milk/cheese mixture over bread and stir to coat. Spoon into 2 quart glass baking dish, pouring excess liquid over the top. Press down with a spoon. Cover and refrigerate over night.














The next morning:
Heat oven to 350, uncover casserole, and bake for 50 minutes. Slice into pieces, sprinkle with parsley and eat it hot! Serves 6-8
