Make-Ahead Pizza Casserole:

1/2 lb. of shredded Mozzarella cheese

1/4 lb. of chopped prosciutto

2 medium tomatoes, cored and diced

6 cups of cubed Italian or French bread (about 1 medium loaf)

5 eggs

1-1/4 cup of skim milk

1/2 cup of reduced-fat sour cream

1 teaspoon of dried oregano

1 teaspoon of dried basil

1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder

Grated Parmesan cheese

  • Spray a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with cooking spray
  • In a large bowl, toss together the mozzarella cheese, prosciutto, tomatoes and bread.
  • Arrange the bread mixture evenly in the baking pan.
  • Using the same bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk.
  • Add the milk, sour cream, oregano, basil and garlic powder. Beat well.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the bread, tilting the baking pan from side to side to soak all the bread cubes evenly.
  • Cover the pan with foil and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.
  • Remove from refrigerator and let stand at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 350F, uncover the casserole and bake for 35 to 45 minutes or until golden brown and crisp on top.
  • Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese before serving if desired.
  • If you like really cheesy pizza, add more shredded mozzarella cheese all over the top right after baking.
