This is a quick and easy lunch or even supper idea that takes little time and tastes great. The leftovers are just as good as first time around.
1 medium onion chopped
1 sweet red pepper seeded and chopped
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup thinly sliced celery
4 slices of bread cut into 1″ cubes
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
6 eggs
2 cups milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
Put a few teaspoons of water in a skillet, add onions, pepper, mushrooms and celery and stir fry till everything is limp about 2 minutes. Grease a 10 X 10 inch pan. Place the cubes of bread in the the bottom of the pan. Spread the vegetable mixture over the top and then spread the cheese over the veggies. Whip the eggs, milk, salt, pepper and mustard together and pour over cheese. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes or until set. Let stand for at least 5 minutes before cutting into squares. Serve with a nice green salad.
Hi Heather! Thanks for putting me on your blog roll. I like your blog- you’re a rare breed, someone from the US who likes to cook from scratch (I hope that doesn’t offend- I thoroughly approve!!). This recipe looks like something my kids would love- I’ll definitely be trying it!
Congrats on your grandson too- he looks gorgeous.
Hi. Thanks for the comment. I am a Canadian living in Ontario near Ottawa. I sometimes find that from scratch is actually quicker once you have a routine.
