The combination of flavors creates a satisfying dish that everyone will love, making it ideal for family gatherings or lazy weekends.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1 pound breakfast sausage<\/li>\n<li>8 large eggs<\/li>\n<li>2 cups milk<\/li>\n<li>4 cups cubed bread (day-old works great)<\/li>\n<li>1 cup shredded cheese (like mozzarella or cheddar)<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon salt<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 teaspoon black pepper<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon dried thyme<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon paprika<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This recipe shines with its rich, savory flavor profile. The sausage adds a satisfying kick, while the bread soaks up all the eggy goodness, creating a deliciously custardy texture. It\u2019s a dish that feels indulgent but is surprisingly simple to whip up!<\/p>\n<p>Cooking the sausage until it\u2019s browned and crumbled is the first step.
