I’m sure you’re familiar with the classic breakfast casserole I grew up eating. It has bread, cheddar cheese, sausage, eggs, milk, and lots of cheese. My mom always made it for special occasions like Christmas morning, showers, Easter, or when we had company in town. It’s one of my favorites.
My Favorite Kitchen Tools To Make This Recipe
From trusty pots and pans to handy gadgets, I’ve curated a list of products I use and love.
This is a twist on that casserole. It’s fully loaded, but I swapped out the cheddar cheese for gouda, sausage for bacon, and egg whites (my preference).
Although I still prepare this dish mainly for sentimental reasons, I have made some modifications to suit my evolving taste. I have reduced the amount of cheese since I don’t enjoy it as much as before.
Nevertheless, cheese remains a key ingredient in the dish. Instead of the regular cheese, I use a more refined type like Gouda, which has a smoky taste that adds an extra layer of flavor to this beloved breakfast dish.
The casserole was a success; even my husband enjoyed it, so it was a bonus. This recipe was a double win for me!
ingredients
- Egg whites whisked
- French bread cubed
- Milk
