Traditional Feast Offerings

Scrambled Egg Casserole (aka – Egg Thing)

A Christmas morning favorite in the Cenci family for nearly 25 years! We prepare on Christmas Eve – using the leftover bread from our Italian Christmas Eve ‘feast of seven fishes’. Christmas morning it goes into the oven and is ready to eat when all the gifts have been opened!

1 baguette (cut into slices)
1/2 lb of grated cheddar cheese
6 eggs
2 1/4 cups of milk

Place bread in greased 9 x 13 inch pan. Sprinkle cheese over bread. Beat eggs in a bowl; add milk and mix. Pour over cheese and bread. Cover with thinly sliced ham, bacon or sausage. Put in refrigerator overnight. Bake at 350 degrees for 45-55 minutes.

One of the best things about Christmas morning.

Well, it is practically a strata. Sounds good, either way.
