FLEXIBLE BREAKFAST CASSEROLE

Sometimes I add more ingredients to the whole thing and make it in a 9x13. I bake this in a water bath. The beauty of this is you can add or leave out whatever you like or have on hand. I have made many varieties of this casserole for work and it's a hit every time. Everything is done the night before and it cooks while I'm getting ready for work. It's also a great holiday breakfast.

Ingredients

8 slice(s) firm bread like italian or sourdough or buy day old bread for this recipe but any bread will do
8 - eggs
1 cup(s) grated cheese, any type you like
1 cup(s) milk
1/2 teaspoon(s) salt and pepper each
- any fresh chopped herbs you like, basil and thyme are really nice

Beat eggs & milk, add salt, pepper and any herbs. Pour over the bread/meat/veggie layers Make sure it just covers the bread, but isn't up to the top of the casserole dish or it will overflow when it bakes. Sprinkle the cheese over the top. Cover and let sit in the fridge over night. Bake at 350 in a water bath for about 45 minutes with foil on top, then remove foil and bake about 10 more minutes or until eggs are set.

Tips:

Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your casserole a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, zucchini, and peppers.
Don't overcook the vegetables. You want them to be tender, but still have a little bit of a bite to them.
Use a good quality cheese. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your casserole. Sharp cheddar, Gruyère, and Monterey Jack are all good choices.
