Mushroom Bread Pudding Recipe

With Thanksgiving coming up, we are spending a lot more time in the kitchen. Cooking is always relaxing for me and no more so than around the holidays. I love baking for family and friends. Making things for other people is such a fun thing to do. This Mushroom Bread Pudding Recipe will seriously wow your guests. It is hearty and decadent plus will have every guest asking for seconds. Our casserole was gone in a matter of minutes. Our son tasted it on the way to table and then circled back to get a second helping. He had only eaten one bite but knew he wanted more. It's that good!

Swiss Diamond

We made this delicious casserole in the 5 quart Nonstick Square Casserole with Lid (11 x 11) by Swiss Diamond. This dish quickly became a favorite of ours once we received it. It is incredibly versatile and works perfectly for our family of five. It seems that my husband keeps finding things to make in it. He just made fresh cinnamon rolls tonight!

No added MSG, low or no fat, lower sodium: Better Than Bouillon blendable bases have 1/3 less salt than ordinary bouillons. After trying this, we could never go back to using anything else. Better Than Buillon gives a delicious taste that elevates your entire recipe.

Ingredients

• 8 cups cubed Italian loaf bread (1/2 inch cubes)
• 1 shallot, chopped
• 2 leeks, whites only, halved and thin sliced
• 6 cloves garlic, chopped

• 1/2 pound cremini mushroom, large chop

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a large saute pan, heat the olive oil over a medium flame.  Add the shallots, leeks, garlic, and celery.  Saute until the vegetables soften.
3. Add the mushrooms and saute until the mushrooms have released their liquid and it has cooked off.  This step takes about 20 minutes.
4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the half and half, eggs, cheese, Better Than Chicken Bullion, and herbs, and pepper.  Add the sauteed mushroom mixture and the bread.  Fold together.
