Okay, before you freak out at the thought of a savory bread pudding, hear me out! I was kind of grossed out as well, but I was SO WRONG to feel that way! I know it doesn’t look like much, but this Savory Breakfast Bread Pudding, is so flipping flavorful with sausage, eggs, tomatoes, herbs, and cheese. It’s even slightly sweet, thanks to a little brown sugar mixed in.

It’s basically a breakfast casserole, with bread, that you don’t even notice is in there really. It just helps things absorb and gel together as a casserole should.

We had this for breakfast two days in a row, because it feeds a lot, but no one was complaining. It was SO good! This bread pudding would be perfect for a Springtime brunch, or you can prep it the night before and bake it in the morning for a hearty breakfast. OR, if you are like us, you can make it for dinner sometime as well. It is savory after all, so it totally counts for dinner food!
