BREAKFAST CASSEROLE TOP BREAKFAST & BISCUITS

Ingredients: (6 servings)

• 1 pound sausage links, sliced
• 5 slices bread
• 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
• 6 eggs
• 2 cups milk
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
• salt to taste
• pepper to taste

Instructions:

In a Dutch oven, brown and drain the sausage. Grease 12-inch Dutch oven. Tear the bread into 1-inch pieces and arrange them evenly in the pan. Spoon the sausage over the bread and sprinkle with the shredded cheese. Beat together the eggs, milk, mustard, salt and pepper and pour it over the mixture in the baking dish. Cover and refrigerate several hours or overnight, if possible. If a baking pan is used, place it into a preheated Dutch oven, setting it on several stones to keep it off of the bottom. Bake at 350-degree F for 30 to 40 minutes or until set. If the recipe is increased allow a little longer baking time.
Variations:

1. Substitute browned corned beef hash or diced ham for the browned sausage. Add raw or sautéed onions or mushrooms and/or chopped, cooked potatoes.
2. For a meatless version, replace the sausage with chopped raw broccoli or spinach. The spinach version is particularly elegant if you use a combination of Swiss and feta cheese and add chopped green onions and a touch of tarragon. Thawed, well-drained frozen spinach works fine.
3. Different cheeses or breads will give the dish a different character.

DUTCH OVEN COBBLER TOP DESSERTS & BREADS

Ingredients: (serves 10)

• 2 #2½ cans fruit or pie mix (peaches, apples, pineapple, etc.)
• 1 box white or yellow cake mix
• ¼ pound butter

Instructions:

Butter inside of Dutch oven (use only ovens with lipped top because you need to put coals on top of oven). Alternatively, you can line the inside of the Dutch oven with aluminum foil. Place fruit in bottom of oven. Cover with cake mix and level it. Cut butter into about 10 pieces and scatter over cake mix. It is ready to bake. (Note: If you use peaches, you may need to dispose of about ½ of the liquid. Crushed pineapple has about the right amount of liquid.)
Place about 8 coals under the Dutch oven and about 16-20 coals on top of oven. Check after 30 minutes. Baking is often complete at 45 minutes. Final Note: Because the Troop often has 100 or so people to feed and a substantial use of Dutch ovens, we have in recent years doubled the recipes in each oven. The number of coals for baking remains the same. Watch the baking closely since it is easier to burn the top of the cobbler with the double recipe.
