1/2 lb asparagus, chopped

2 onions/shallots

5 CUP bread loaf chunks

1 CUP grated cheese-divided in two portions

1/4 CUP fresh parsley

5 eggs

2 CUP milk

1 TBSP mustard

 

Saute asparagus and onion for five minutes.

 

 

In a greased pan, combine bread cubes, cheese portion, half the vegetables and parsley.*

 

 

Whisk eggs, milk and mustard.  Pour over bread mixture.

Let stand one hour.

Top with second portion of cheese.

Bake 350F for 45 mins. 

 

*We found  that the components were too clustered together and would opt for a layering of ingredients versus trying to combine them all at once.  Then add liquids.

A vigorous whisk is required for the mustard to blend.
