12 thick slices bread with crusts removed
1/2 cup butter
1/2 lb fresh mushrooms sliced
2 cups onions, thinly sliced
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 lbs Papa Weaver Sausage
1 lb Cheddar cheese, grated
5 eggs
1 1/2 cup milk
1 cup heavy cream
2 TBS Dijon Mustard
Parsley for Garnish
The Butter, mushrooms (when in season), Papa Weaver Sausage, Cheddar Cheese, eggs, milk, heavy cream, and Dijon mustard can all be found at Miller Farms Market.
Line the bottom of a well-greased 13x9 inch baking dish with the bread slices, overlapping as necessary. In a large skillet melt the butter and saute' the mushrooms and onions until tender. Season with the salt and pepper and set aside. In a large skillet fry the sausage, breaking with fork into small chunks as it cooks. When brown, drain the excess fat. Over the bread in the baking dish layer half each of sausage, onion mixture, and cheese. Repeat the layers. In a bowl beat together the eggs, milk, and mustard. Pour the mixture over the layers. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Starting in a cold oven bake at 350 degrees, uncovered, for 50 to 60 minutes, or until set. Serve garnished with parsley. Yields 8 servings.
