How to cook deliciously - Spinach-Mushroom Brunch Casserole

1. Stage

Place the bun tops, top down, in a buttered, 13- x 9-inch casserole dish. Set aside the bun bottoms.

2. Stage

In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat, until sizzling.

3. Stage

Add onion and saute until they're just softening. Add mushroom slices and stir, reducing heat to medium. Cook for about 5 minutes.

4. Stage

Stir in herbs, garlic, paprika and salt and pepper to taste, then add spinach and cook another 3 minutes, stirring to wilt the spinach. Remove from heat.

5. Stage

Spoon half the vegetable mixture evenly over the bun tops in the casserole dish. Scatter half the bacon and cheese evenly on top.

6. Stage

Place the bun bottoms, with cut side up, in the casserole to form the top layer.

7. Stage

Spoon the rest of the vegetable mixture, bacon and cheese over the top layer of buns.

8. Stage

In a bowl, stir together eggs and milk until blended.

Pour the mixture evenly over the casserole. Using a spatula, press down firmly on each of the buns to submerge in the liquid. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight.
