Steps:
- Grease a 9-by-13-inch (3-quart) casserole dish with oil.
- Toss the bread cubes with 2 tablespoons of the oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bread to the skillet, and cook, tossing occasionally, until toasted and golden brown, about 8 minutes. Return the toasted bread to the bowl to cool.
- Wipe out the skillet. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat until it starts to shimmer. Add the mushrooms in one layer (resist the urge to stir right away), and cook until they start to brown, about 3 minutes; stir, then continue to brown for 2 minutes more. Add the garlic, thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt and some pepper, stir continuously for 1 minute, then fold in the spinach and another 1/4 teaspoon salt. Continue to cook, stirring often, until the spinach is wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Place half the bread cubes in the prepared casserole dish, and sprinkle them with half each of the Gruyere and Parmesan. Add the mushroom-spinach mixture in an even layer. Top with the remaining bread cubes, Gruyere and Parmesan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Pour the egg mixture into the casserole dish. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours up to overnight. Remove the casserole from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the casserole until the custard is set and the top is golden brown, 50 to 55 minutes. Cool for at least 15 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature.

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.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh spinach and mushrooms will give your casserole the best flavor. If you can't find fresh spinach, you can use frozen spinach that has been thawed and squeezed dry.
- Don't overcook the vegetables: The spinach and mushrooms should be cooked until they are just tender, but not mushy. Overcooked vegetables will make your casserole watery.
- Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this casserole, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that melts well. A sharp cheddar cheese or a Gruyère cheese are both good choices.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the casserole tough. Stir the ingredients together just until they are combined.
- Bake the casserole until it is golden brown: The casserole is done baking when it is golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Conclusion:
This spinach and mushroom egg casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. It's perfect for a crowd, and it can be made ahead of time. Just follow the tips above to make sure your casserole turns out perfect.
