I've made this before. It's very good and the kids love it; of course.
I make this with the leftover Christmas Ham: 7 slices white bread (take the crust off) 8 Eggs 1 pound mild cheddar cheese 4 cups milk 2 tsp dry mustard 1 tsp salt Canadian bacon Dash Worcestershire Grease a 9 X 13 pam Take the 7 slices of bread and tear or cut them of into 1 inch cubes and place them at the bottom of a 9 X 13 pan Grate the cheese & chop up the Canadian Bacon Mix all ingredients together and then pour over the bread that is lining the bottom of the pan Place in a oven at 350 for 1 – 1 1/4 hours That’s it!! Pretty easy. You can do regular bacon instead of Canadian, but then you have to cook the bacon first. Canadian bacon is pre-cooked.
Thanks, Bea! I printed out the recipe and will try it Christmas morning. Who knows? You might have just given us a Christmas tradition. I sure hope so. Thanks again, Bea.
