Ingredients:
Ingredients:
1 lb. Italian pork sausage
10 cups cubed day old or toasted French or Italian bread (1 lb.)
2 cups grated Provolone cheese
6 T. chopped fresh basil, divided use
10 eggs slightly beaten
4 cups half and half or whole milk
1 tsp. dry mustard
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. onion powder
Fresh ground pepper to taste
3/4 cup diced seeded plum tomatoes
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Directions:
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Break up the sausage into chunks and cook, stirring and breaking into small pieces, for 8 minutes or until sausage is well browned and cooked through. Remove to a strainer to drain off excess fat.
Place bread cubes in a well-buttered 9 x 13 inch baking pan. Sprinkle with cheese and 4 T. fresh basil. Whisk the eggs, milk, dry mustard, onion powder and pepper in a medium bowl. Pour evenly over the bread and cheese. Sprinkle sausage over the top. Let rest for 15 minutes before baking. (Casserole may be covered and refrigerated overnight at this point.)
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Bake uncovered for 45 minutes. Sprinkle with tomatoes and then Parmesan cheese and continue baking for 15 minutes or until casserole is set. Immediately sprinkle with remaining 2 T. basil. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.
