Breakfast Casserole

I love having breakfast for supper!  We do it about once a week.  This recipe is also good for breakfast and good to take somewhere.  Like teacher breakfasts.  It is a very filling casserole.

This recipe comes from the Staplcotn Cookbook, which is a great standard cookbook to have.

2 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups of half and half
1/2 cup milk
7 large eggs
1 good squeeze of brown mustard
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 TBS black pepper
1/c cup melted butter
1 roll of bulk sausage - cooked
4 strips of bacon - at least
7 slices of bread - torn up
mushrooms optional

1.  cook and drain sausage
2.  fry bacon - drain
3.  in a large bowl - mix eggs and add the spices
4.  stir and add in both milks
5.  add melted butter - stir
6.  add 2 cups of cheese, the bacon and the sausage - stir
