Ham, Cheese & Sausage Bake

INGREDIENTS

  • 10 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 c. non-dairy milk of choice
  • 2 tsp. Dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp. fresh thyme leaves, plus more for garnish
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder
  • kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 c. cubed Snackin Free Bread or gluten-free bread of choice
  • 1/2 lb. ham (preferably nitrate free) or Sausage (I use Jones Dairy Farms Sausage) chopped
  • 1 1/2 c. shredded dairy-free Cheddar style cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter-flavored shortening

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Whisk together eggs, milk, dijon, and seasonings in a large bowl.
  3. Coat a 13 x 9-inch baking dish with shortening. Add bread and top with ham/ sausage and cheddar-style cheese. Pour over the egg mixture.
  4. Bake until eggs are cooked through and ham golden, 45 to 55 minutes. (To make ahead, cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and refrigerate at least 4 hours and up to overnight, then bake as directed.)
  5. Garnish with more thyme and serve.
