This one went over quite well.
12 bread slices (it specifies white, I used a whole wheat white)
2 T soft butter
4 slices swiss cheese (for both the swiss and the bread, it is going to depend on the size of your casserole)
1 large tomato, cut into slices
4 eggs
2 c milk
1 tsp salt (it calls for seasoned salt, but I used salt and then added some more seasoning to the end result)
1/8 tsp pepper (or to taste)
1 tsp dry mustard (or to taste)
1/4 tsp paprika (or to taste)
1 tsp dried minced onion
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
(I’d suggest a little garlic as well)
2 c grated sharp Cheddar cheese
Lightly grease a 2 qt casserole, shallow is better for this recipe. Lightly spread one side of each slice of bread with butter. Take 4 (or however many it takes) slices of bread and put them butter side down in a single layer in the casserole. Make Swiss sandwiches out of the rest of your bread, again placing the buttered sides out. Cut them in half, diagonally. Place the sandwiches in the dish center edge down, and sort of layer and pinwheel them. Place slices of tomato between the sandwiches throughout. If you end up with extra tomato, just tuck it in where it looks right.
Mix together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, mustard, onion, paprika, and Worcestershire. Stir in cheese.
Pour mixture over the bread, and stick in the fridge for an hour. Preheat your oven to 325 while waiting. Then bake the casserole for about an hour, or until it seems firm and cooked through when checked.
