Ingredients

  • 1 lb spicy ground sausage
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 4 eggs
  • 1.5 cups milk
  • 1 loaf Brioche Bread

Instructions

  • In a large skillet brown the sausage and cook the peppers all together
  • When it is cooked through, remove and set on a paper towel lined plate to drain the excess grease.
  • Dice up an entire loaf of brioche bread into 1 inch cubes.
  • In a greased 9x9 baking dish, add the bread cubes.
  • In a mixing bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, and slightly cooled sausage and pepper mix.
  • Pour directly over the bread cubes in the baking dish.
  • Press the bread into the dish so it gets completely submerged in the liquid.
  • Let this rest for at least 30 minutes but up to 8 hours. Tightly cover with tin foil.
  • When you are ready to bake, heat the oven to 350 and bake it with the foil on for 40 minutes.
  • It should be golden brown when you remove the foil. Enjoy!
