Number Of Ingredients 9

4 large croissants, split into top and bottom halves
2 cups grated swiss cheese
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 cup grated monterey jack cheese or 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese
5 large eggs
1 cup skim milk
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon salt, if desired

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350°F
Butter four au gratin dishes.
Place the bottom half of each croissant in a dish, cut side up.
Spread Swiss cheese on each, saving about 1/2 cup to sprinkle on top. Follow with all of the Parmesan and Monterey Jack, dividing each cheese equally among the croissants.
In a medium bowl, beat the eggs, milk, and seasonings until they are frothy.
Pour 2/3 cup of the egg mixture over each croissant and replace the tops.
Sprinkle the remaining Swiss cheese evenly over the tops. Bake 20 minutes or until the eggs are set and the croissants are a golden brown.
