Wisconsin Cheese and Sausage Strata

12 slices white bread, cubed
1⅓ cups (about 8 ounces) cubed Cheddar cheese
⅔ cup (about 4 ounces) cubed mozzarella cheese
8 ounces Polish sausage or cubed cooked ham, or 16 ounces bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 (4-ounce) can mushroom stems and pieces, drained
6 eggs
2 cups milk
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
¼ teaspoon dry mustard

Wisconsin Cheese and Sausage Strata is a great addition to a brunch buffet.

Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Place half the cubed bread in the prepared baking dish. Cover with the cheeses, meat, and mushrooms. Top with the remaining cubed bread.
Beat the eggs with the milk and seasonings. Pour over the bread, making sure to coat all of the cubes. Cover and refrigerate overnight or at least 4 hours.
To complete the strata, preheat the oven to 350°F. Remove the strata from the refrigerator. Bake for 1 hour or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
