Instructions
Prepare a 9x13-inch or an 11x7-inch baking dish by greasing it with butter or cooking spray. Add the cubed bread to the dish. Set aside.
8 slices white bread
Heat a medium skillet over low-medium heat. Add the sausage, onion, and Worcestershire sauce. Continue cooking for 5 to 7 minutes until the sausage is browned and no longer pink. Remove from the heat to a paper towel lined plate, and drain of excess grease.
1 pound breakfast sausage, ½ white onion, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Allow the sausage and onions to cool, then add them to the baking dish in an even layer over the cubed bread. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the sausage and onions.
1 ½ cups sharp cheddar cheese
In a medium bowl, beat the eggs. Whisk in the milk, salt, dry mustard, pepper, and onion powder. Pour the egg mixture into the baking dish over the shredded cheese.
6 large eggs, 2 cups milk, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1 teaspoon dry mustard, ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Cover and refrigerate overnight. The following day, remove the casserole from the refrigerator for about 15 minutes prior to baking.
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Cover, and bake for 40 minutes. Uncover, and bake for 10-15 more minutes or until the center is set.
Serve hot with chives, green onions, or fresh parsley as a garnish.
