Cheese Strata

From the mother of my wonderful friend, Holly. Diane Hoff's strata is a breakfast to be reckoned with.

Ingredients:
2c bread cubes, no crust
1/2# sharp cheddar cheese, cubed
1/2# bacon, ham or bay shrimp
1/4c melted butter
1/2# mushrooms
3 large eggs
2c milk
1tsp mustard
1/4tsp salt

Place half the bread cubes in a 1.5 quart casserole dish. Layer half the cheese, meat or shrimp and butter. Repeat layers and arrange mushrooms on to. Beat eggs, milk, mustard and salt. Pour over the layered mixture. Set casserole in pan of hot water. Bake uncovered at 300' for 90 minutes.

Better if prepared in advance and refrigerated overnight until baking time.
