BREAKFAST CASSEROLE

This is another recipe that my mother clipped from an old newspaper years ago.  I found it, after her death, among her boxes of clippings.

six or seven slices of white bread (I would recommend whole-wheat)
12 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 lb sausage, browned, crumbled, drained
1 tsp fennel seed
3 1/2 to 4 cups milk
2 tbsp chopped onion
salt and pepper to taste

Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish or pan.  Line the bottom of the dish with the bread.  Mix together the remaining ingredients and pour over the bread.  Bake for 45 minutes at 375 degrees or until bubbly and browned.  Done with a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.  Serves 12.


Note: May also add some cooked, crumbled bacon, if desired.
