1 pound sweet Italian sausage, casings removed

1 small onion chopped

1/2 cup chopped green pepper

1/2 cup chopped sweet red pepper

2 cloves garlic. finely chopped

12 cups (about a 1 pond loaf) 1 1/2 inch cubed Italian or French bread

2 cups shredded mozarella cheese

3 cups 1/2 and 1/2

1 can (15 ounces) pure pumpkin

4 large eggs

1 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. ground black pepper

1/2 tsp. dried oregano, crushed

1/2 tsp. dried basil, crushed

1/2 tsp. dried marjoram, crushed

Directions

Preheat oven to 350F. Grease 9x13 baking pan.

Heat oil in a large skillet. Add sausage, onion, bell peppers, and garlic. Cook, stirring to break up sausage, for 7-10 minutes, or until sausage is no longer pink. Drain.

In a large bowl, combine bread cubes, cheese, and sausage mixture. In a medium bowl, beat 1/2 & 1/2, pumpkin, eggs, spices, salt and pepper until well blended. Pour over bread mixture. Stirring gently to moisten bread.

Pour into prepared baking pan. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until set. Serve warm.

A tip from My Brother-in -law that would work nicely in this recipe, is to grease the pan with a strip of raw bacon.
