Ingredients
  

6 large eggs

1 cup milk

2 cups cubed day-old bread (preferably sourdough)

1 cup cooked sausage, crumbled

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup diced bell pepper (any color)

1/2 cup chopped onion

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon salt

Fresh herbs for garnish (optional, like chives or parsley)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Add salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, and whisk again.

      In the greased baking dish, layer the cubed bread evenly along the bottom.

        Evenly distribute the crumbled sausage, diced bell pepper, and chopped onion over the bread cubes.

          Pour the egg mixture over the layered ingredients, ensuring everything is soaked. Press down gently with a spatula to help it combine.

            Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top of everything.

              Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is set in the center and the top is golden brown.

                Once done, remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.

                  Garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve warm.
