Ingredients:
  • 1 pound Certified Angus Beef ® ground beef
  • 1/2 pound bacon, diced
  • 1 onion, peeled and diced
  • 12 eggs
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 1/2 cups half & half
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 pound sourdough country-style round loaf
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
  • 4 ounces spinach, chopped into 1/2-inch ribbons
  • 8 ounces (2 cups) shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions:
  1. In a large sauté pan, sear bacon over medium-high heat until it begins to crisp. Add onions and ground beef, reduce heat and simmer until no pink remains in beef. Remove from stovetop, drain off excess fat and set beef aside.
  2. In a large pitcher combine eggs, sour cream, half & half, milk, salt and pepper. Use a hand immersion blender or whisk to blend until smooth. Set aside. Cut crust from bread and cut into 1/2 inch cubes. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  3. Butter a 9 x 13-inch casserole pan to begin assembly. Layer half of bread cubes followed by beef mixture, chives, spinach, second half of bread and cheese. Pour egg into casserole.
  4. Bake 30 minutes, turn and bake an additional 20-30 minutes until casserole has completely risen in the middle and has a golden crust. Remove from oven. Allow to cool 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
