Southwest Sausage And Egg Breakfast Casserole

6 slices bread with crust removed
1 pound sausage
4 cups Colby Jack cheese
6 eggs
2 cans green chilies
2 cups half and half
1 teaspoon mustard, dry
1 teaspoon salt
Picante sauce

In a 9x13 inch baking dish, place lightly buttered (on both sides) bread. 
In a large skillet, brown the sausage and drain well.
Sprinkle the sausage as evenly as possible over bread slices – make sure bread is covered. Sprinkle the cheese over the sausage layer and then place green chilies over the cheese.
Beat the eggs in a medium sized mixing bowl and then add in the half-and-half, mustard and salt.
Once mixed thoroughly pour over the casserole and cover with tin foil and place in the refrigerator overnight.
To prepare: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Bake for 45 minutes or until the casserole is bubbly. Let stand for 15 minutes and then serve with Picante sauce.
