Brie and Sausage Bake


Ingredients

  • 1 pound bulk Johnsonville® Ground Sausage
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 8 cups cubed day-old sourdough bread
  • 1/2 cup chopped roasted sweet red peppers
  • 1/2 pound Brie cheese, rind removed, cubed
  • 2/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh basil or 2 teaspoons dried basil
  • 8 eggs
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • 3 green onions, sliced

Directions

  • In a large skillet, cook sausage and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain.
  • Place bread cubes in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Layer with sausage mixture, red peppers, Brie and Parmesan cheeses and basil. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, cream, mustard, pepper and salt; pour over top. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 45-50 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
  • Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Bake 4-6 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting. Sprinkle with green onions. Yield: 12 servings.

  2. I love the idea of a breakfast casserole. Especially on busy mornings. You can prep it the night before and just pop it in the oven while everyone scurries to get ready for the day. Thank you for sharing!
