This Egg and Cheese Casserole is perfect for a brunch or potluck. The bread basically melts into the eggs and cheese to make a light and cheesy breakfast souffle!

Breakfast is one on my favorite meals! I love bacon, eggs, pancakes, bagels and cream cheese – all of it! On a separate note, I love to entertain and I can throw a killer Brunch – not to mention brunch is one of the easiest meals to make so it is a natural for me! My absolute go-to brunch recipe is this super easy and crazy yummy Easy Egg and Cheese Souffle. I have been making it for years and I have finally learned I need to make two of them because they are gone so fast!

What I especially love about this is you prepare it the night before your brunch and then just pop it in the oven in the morning – easy as pie….or souffle!!

Here’s what you need:

• 10 slices of bread – I use Challah or egg bread… you want to use a sweeter bread
• 1 stick of butter
• 8 eggs, beaten
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp dry mustard
• 2 cups shredded cheese – I usually use cheddar, but pick your favorite
• 2 cups milk
• paprika (optional)

Here’s what you do:

• Spray 9×13 pan with non-stick spray
• Remove crust from bread and cube it
• Melt butter and toss with bread
• Place bread in pan
• Sprinkle cheese on top of bread
• In a bowl, mix egg (beaten), salt, milk & mustard
• Pour mixture evenly over bread
• Sprinkle with paprika (optional)
• Cover and place in refrigerator overnight
• Bake at 350 degrees for 45- 60 minutes
