This easy strata puffs up into melty cheesy goodness. For added flavour, use a maple-flavoured breakfast sausage.

8 slices whole -grain bread
1 tart apple, cored and diced
3 chopped green onion
1 ½ cups grated sharp cheddar cheese, divided
1 lb lean turkey breakfast sausage, cooked and sliced into rounds
9 large eggs
2 cups milk
½ tsp salt
½ tsp pepper
1 Tbsp mustard
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°C (180°F).
Cut bread into cubes. Place two-thirds of the bread cubes into the bottom of a greased 9 inch ×13 inch baking dish.
Spread the apple, onion and 1 cup cheese evenly over the bread. Add the remaining bread evenly over this mixture.
