may be made the night before and refrigerated, or made the same morning, just dip the bread in milk mixture first.
2-3 cubed leftover bread (any of your sweet breads, like Challah, or a good
whole wheat will add flavour)
1 1/2 cups of cheese (I used Havarti, but Swiss or gruyere will be great)
1/2 cup purple onion slivered
2 celery stalks diced
1/2 cup peppers chopped (green, red, yellow--I freeze them sliced when they
are a good price.)
1/2 lb mixed seafood: shrimp, crab, fake crab, whatever is in the market
5 large eggs
1 1/4 cups milk
1/4 tsp dried mustard
salt and pepper
Cube the bread, place in a couple of small high sided quiche pans, sprayed or wiped with oil.
Add sliced veg and then spread the seafood over top, pressing gently into the mixture.
Spread cheese on top
Pour mixed eggs, milk and mustard on top.
350 for about 45 minutes till brown and bubbly.
Serves 4-6 depending on what else you serve with it. Very tasty and colourful.
