In another medium-sized skillet, brown 1 cup of Jimmy Dean sausage on medium to high heat until well done, breaking it up with a spatula.

Toast 4 slices of Canyon Bake House gluten-free Hawaiian sweet bread in a toaster.

Line the bottom of a 9x9 casserole dish with the toasted bread slices.

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

In a Pyrex measuring cup, crack 6 eggs and whisk them together.

Add 1/2 cup of milk to the eggs until the total is 2 cups and whisk until mixed.

Remove the potatoes, onions, and bell peppers from the skillet and drain excess oil on a paper towel.

Pour the egg mixture over the bread in the casserole dish.

Add the cooked potatoes, onions, and bell peppers on top of the bread.

Add 1 cup of browned Jimmy Dean sausage on top of the casserole.

Grate cheddar cheese and sprinkle it generously on top of the casserole.

Bake in the oven for about 30 to 45 minutes until well done.

After 35 minutes, check if it's well done and remove from the oven.

Cut the casserole into sections and serve.
