BREAKFAST SAUSAGE BAKE

1 lb. cooked "hot" sausage
2 cans (12 oz. ea.) Carnation evaporated milk
8 large eggs, beaten
2 cups (8 oz.) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
2 cups of frozen red pepper, green pepper, onion mixture
1 tsp. garlic powder
8 cups of 1/2" cubed Italian or French bread (just pull it apart into small pieces) (I use a 1/2 loaf of the long deli Italian bread)

Preheat oven to 350.
Grease a 13" x 9" baking dish.

Combine all ingredients (except bread) in a large mixing bowl.

Add bread by stirring gently to moisten the bread.

Pour mixture into the baking dish.

Bake for 45 minutes. Serve warm.
