Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

5 large croissants (stale, torn/cut bite-size)
2 thick slice Italian bread (stale, torn bite-size)
1 1/2 c leftover baked ham, chopped bite-size
1 large shallot, minced
6 oz baby Swiss cheese, shredded or chopped
3 to 4 oz Monterey Jack cheese, shredded/chopped
4 large eggs
2 c milk (whole or 2%)
3/4 to 1 tsp Jane's Krazy Mixed Up Salt (or your favorite seasoned salt)
1/8 c sharp or extra-sharp cheddar cheese
1/8 to 1/4 c real, finely crumbled smoked bacon bits
1 Tbsp minced fresh chives

Steps:

1. The evening before, gather and prep ingredients.
2. Spray a 13" x 9" baking dish with butter flavored cooking oil spray or grease with real butter.
3. Evenly distribute torn croissants and bread in baking dish.
4. Evenly distribute chopped ham, minced shallots, baby Swiss and Monterey Jack over bread; set aside.
5. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 4 eggs and about 1/2 cup of the milk, until well blended; whisk in the salt; add remainder of milk in several stages, whisking well after each.
6. Slowly pour milk mixture all over the casserole.
7. Scatter small amount of extra-sharp cheddar over casserole. Lightly press down on the casserole with large spoon or impeccably clean hands (as Julia Child would say!) to help the bread soak up the liquid.
8. Cover dish tightly with aluminum foil; place in refrigerator overnight.
9. The next day, approximately 1 1/4 hours before mealtime, preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
10. Remove casserole from refrigerator; temporarily remove foil; scatter finely crumbled bacon over top.
11. Cover with foil; place casserole dish on a baking sheet; bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, remove foil, rotate baking sheet and bake, uncovered, for an additional 30 minutes.
12. Allow to cool for a few minutes, then scatter chives over the top. Serve immediately. Cover and refrigerate leftovers.

Tips:

- For a crispier casserole, use day-old bread. Fresh bread will absorb too much of the egg mixture and become soggy. - If you don't have a baking dish, you can use a 9x13 inch glass or metal pan. Just be sure to grease the pan well so the casserole doesn't stick. - You can use any type of cheese you like in this casserole. Cheddar, mozzarella, and Swiss are all popular choices. - If you don't have bacon, you can use cooked sausage or ham instead. - Add some chopped vegetables to the casserole for a healthier twist. Bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms are all good choices. - Serve the casserole with your favorite toppings. Salsa, sour cream, and guacamole are all popular choices.

Conclusion:

This cheesy bacon breakfast casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weekend brunch or holiday meal.
