  • 1/2 lb (250 g) bulk hot pork sausage
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) butter or margarine
  • 1 pkg (300 g) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed to drain or 1/2 lb (250 g) leaf spinach
  • 1 lb (500 g) small zucchini, sliced (2 cups/500 mL)
  • 2 medium green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 10 slices white bread

  • 2 cups (500 mL) shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
  • 2 cups (500 mL) shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps

  • 1
    Grease rectangular pan, 13x9x2 inches. Cook sausage in 12-inch skillet over medium heat 7 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink; drain. Melt butter in same skillet over medium-high heat. Cook spinach, zucchini, bell peppers and onion in butter about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until zucchini is crisp-tender.
  • 2
    Break each bread slice into 4 pieces. Layer sausage, vegetables and bread in pan. Beat eggs, milk, mustard, salt and pepper with hand beater or wire whisk until blended; pour over bread. Sprinkle cheeses over top. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours but no longer than 24 hours.

    Heat oven to 325ºF. Cover and bake 30 minutes. Uncover and bake about 45 minutes longer or until top is golden brown and knife inserted in centre comes out clean.

Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Health Twist: Substitute turkey sausage for one or both of the pork sausages, and you will slash fat.
  • Tip 2
    Tip: Bulk pork sausage is the raw meat that hasn't been stuffed into the casing. If you can't find it, you can buy raw sausages, slit the casing with a knife and remove the meat.
