Grilled Cheese Casserole

Ingredients

• 4 Bacon (slices)
• 1 Cooking Spray (for dish)
• 4 Sourdough Bread (slices)
• ¼ cup Butter (divided)
• 4 Cheddar Cheese (slices; or provolone, or a mixture of both)
• 2 Chicken Egg (large)
• 2 tbsp Milk (optional)
• 1 Table Salt (to taste)
• 1 Black Pepper (freshly ground, to taste)

Instructions

1. 1

   Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels.

2. 2

   Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Lightly spray a 9x9-inch casserole dish with cooking spray. Lay 2 slices of bread in the bottom of the dish. Butter the bread facing up.

3. 3

   Cover buttered bread with cheese, then place 2 pieces bacon on each slice. Top each with an additional slice of bread and butter the tops.

4. 4

   Whisk eggs and milk together in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then pour egg mixture around the sandwiches. Let mixture stand while the oven preheats.

5. 5

   Bake in the preheated oven until the bread is golden brown and the eggs are set, about 20 minutes. Serve warm.
