1 lb breakfast sausage, browned and drained
12 ounces bacon, browned and drained
1/2 loaf day-old French bread, cubed
3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
10 eggs
3 cups half-and-half (can substitute milk)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon dry mustard
salsa, for topping (optional)

1
In a 9 x 13 greased pan, layer bread cubes, sausage, bacon and cheese.
2
In a separate bowl, beat eggs with the 1/2 and 1/2, salt, pepper, and mustard. Pour over the layered ingredients and make sure to press everything down into the custard mixture.
3
Cover and refrigerate over night. If your in a hurry you can weigh the top down with cans and cut the wait time down to about 2 hours (ok, so not so much a hurry but it's faster than overnight!)

Take out of refrigerator and let set at room temperature 30 minutes before baking 50-60 minutes at 350 degrees. Knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
