Recipe: Egg and Cheese Bake

From the More-With-Less cookbook, 1976 edition.

Beat 5 eggs until lemon colored. Add 1T salt, a dash pepper and 2 to 3 cups shredded cheese and mix well.

Add 2 1/2 cups hot milk and 1 quart bread cubes.

Pour into a greased 7" x 11" baking dish. Bake 30 minutes at 325 degree, until just set. Serve warm.

This is an excellent and easy recipe. It tastes great with any kind of cheese (cheddar is the best in my opinion though) and any kind of bread (I've used wheat, white, even cinnamon raisin!). It happily accepts changes and additions (chopped sausage, veggies...)

Enjoy!

This is a family tradition. And you're right, it's great with sausage and/or veggies.

Interesting. I do something similar but adding some breakfast meats, varying from ham to sausage. It's quite delish. I also often add some green bell pepper and a little touch of cajun seasoning. Yum!
