Chile-Cheese Sausage Casserole

Submitted by Allie Jones

8-10 slices white or light wheat bread, crusts cut off
8 eggs
3/4 - 1 lb. sharp cheddar, grated
1 small can green (like anaheim) chiles, hot, med or mild (even jalapenos if you want)
2/3 lb sausage, crumbled and browned
1-2 Tblsp minced onion
1 clove minced garlic
1 tsp dry mustard
1 qt (4 cups) whole or 2% milk
cracked pepper to taste
(a few dashes of salt if you like but not really necessary with all the cheese and sausage, you know?)

Butter each slice of bread and arrange in bottom of 9 X 13 baking dish so bottom totally covered. Sprinkle on one layer of about 1/2 the grated cheddar on top of bread, so coating the bread with a nice layer of cheese. Sprinkle the green chiles and crumbled sausage over the cheese layer. Beat the eggs in a large bowl and add all the rest of ingredients and whisk together. Pour over the bread/cheese sausage layers. Finish with the sprinkling of the rest of your grated cheese. Bake at 325 degrees for one hour.
