Easy French Toast Casserole (Make Ahead) image

Great for Christmas morning as you make it the night before and pop it in the oven for about an hour. It's really yummy and SO EASY! There are a few other french toast casserole dishes here, but none quite like this one. My friend Kathy made this for a ladies brunch/book club and everyone loved it. I had to have the recipe!
