Brunch Casserole

I made a slight change to the existing brunch casserole recipe and we loved it.  Instead of throwing away the crusts of the bread, tear them up into small pieces (about an inch or less in length) and put them on top of the casserole before pouring the milk and egg mixture.  The crumbs get sufficiently moist to be baked and brown nicely.  It made it look beautiful and added a delightful crunch.
