Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 8 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook, undisturbed, until they begin to brown, about 2 minutes. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste; continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 4 more minutes. Stir in the spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
- Brush a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with olive oil. Arrange the bread in the dish in a single layer with the edges slightly overlapping, then spoon the mushroom-spinach mixture on top. If making ahead, cover and refrigerate overnight.
- When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Crack an egg onto each piece of bread; season with salt and pepper. Pour the milk evenly over the top and sprinkle with the cheese. Bake until the egg whites are set, 25 to 30 minutes.
SPINACH AND MUSHROOM EGG CASSEROLE
This casserole dish was concocted to accommodate the veggie lovers in my family for Easter brunch. It is easy to make and can be stored in the refrigerator ahead of time, giving you the ability to visit with guests instead of spending prep time in the kitchen during the family gathering. It could also easily be altered, adding other favorite vegetables that are to your liking, or could be "spiced" up for those individuals who have more exotic tastes. I actually use 2 percent milk and a salt substitute (Salt Sense) when making this recipe. Please use what appeals best to you.
