- 8 green onions, sliced (about 1 cup)
- 2 zucchini, diced (about 3 cups)

- 1 loaf Italian bread, cut into 1-inch cubes (about 8 cups)
- 2 cups shredded sharp
- Cheddar cheese
- 6 large eggs

- Preheat oven to 325u0b0. Remove and discard casings from sausage. Cook sausage in a large skillet, stirring until sausage crumbles and is no longer pink; drain.
- Add onions, zucchini, salt and pepper. Saute for 4 minutes. Stir in roasted peppers; drain and cool.
- Spread 4 cups Italian bread cubes in a lightly greased 13-by-9-inch baking dish. Top the layer of cubes with half of the sausage mixture and half of the cheese. Create another layer with remaining bread, sausage and cheese.
- Whisk together eggs and milk. Pour egg mixture over cheese. Cover and chill for 8 hours. Bake, covered, for at least 1 hour or until bubbly and hot.
