HOLIDAY "EGG THING" BREAKFAST
My mother used to make this delicious breakfast every Christmas morning (we called it "Egg Thing" as kids), but it would also be appropriate for Easter or other occasions. You can add your own touches to make it your own, but here is the basic recipe:

Number Of Ingredients 13
Steps:
- Butter all the slices of bread on one side and cube them (1 inch squares are fine, but the size is not important).
- Butter a large shallow baking dish.
- Put about half the bread cubes in the dish (evenly distributed in the pan).
- Sprinkle the cubes with half of the cheeses.
- Repeat both layers.
- Combine remaining ingredients and pour over the bread and cheese mixture (may look very liquidy, but it's okay; the bread will soak up the moisture).
- Refrigerate 8-24 hours before baking (I like this b/c you can make the recipe the night before and just throw it in the oven for breakfast the next day).
- Bake at 350 for 1 hour and 15 min or until brown (check often: this can be a tricky recipe, and oven temperatures can vary a lot).
- You could add a lot of different things like sausage, ham, bacon, diced bell peppers, and onions, so if you'd like to add anything just throw it in with the cream mixture.
- Best served with bacon or ham and coffee.
