So, I bought a day old loaf of cuban bread on Christmas eve with thoughts of making a breakfast casserole. I got up Christmas morning and found this recipe. I read it, and then read more. I actually typed eggs, bacon and bread into the search engine for a casserole. I was dismayed at the "let it sit overnight" part of the recipe and decided to try it without. IT WAS AWESOME. The picky 13 year old even liked it. Thank you.
