Ingredients

• 8 cups Day-old bread (French or sourdough)
• 2 cups Cooked turkey, shredded or diced
• 2 cups Swiss cheese, shredded
• 2 cups Whole milk
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 4 Large eggs
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.

Step 2

Cut the day-old bread into 1-inch cubes and spread them evenly in the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole milk, heavy cream, eggs, melted butter, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until well combined.

Step 4

Stir in the chopped parsley, shredded turkey, and 1.5 cups of the shredded Swiss cheese, reserving 0.5 cup for the topping.

Step 5

Pour the milk and egg mixture evenly over the bread cubes in the baking dish. Press the bread down gently with a spatula to make sure it fully absorbs the liquid.

Step 6

Sprinkle the reserved 0.5 cup of Swiss cheese evenly over the top of the bread pudding.

Step 7

Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Step 8

Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the pudding is set.

Step 9

Remove the bread pudding from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Garnish with additional chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm.
