1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease 9-inch square baking pan. Arrange 3 to 4 bread slices to cover bottom of pan. Cut bread to fit, if necessary. Spread chipotle sauce over bread. Spread turkey over sauce. Sprinkle 1 cup cheese over turkey. Cover with remaining 3 to 4 bread slices.
|
|
2. Beat together eggs, milk, salt and pepper. Pour over bread; press down firmly so bread absorbs liquid. Top with remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake, uncovered, 60 to 70 minutes or until set and golden brown. Remove from oven. Let stand 10 to 15 minutes before cutting.
