1 fresh chopped jalapeno (optional)
4 c. grated Monterey Jack cheese
6 eggs
1 tsp. seasoned salt
1 rounded tsp. ground cumin

Lightly butter each slice of bread and place in a buttered 9 x 13 glass baking dish.
Brown sausage with onions. Drain and pat with paper towels. Sprinkle sausage & onion mixture over bread. Sprinkle cheese over sausage. Beat eggs. Add spices and half & half to eggs and mix well. Pour egg mixture over bread, sausage, and cheese.

ReplyDeleteI saw your comment at Forensics and Faith the "Mocha" drew me in. I'm a coffee junkie, Christian mamma, wannabe writer, and I love reading books too. We seem to have a lot in common.
