Equipment

  • 9x12 Casserole Dish
  • Saute' Pan
  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Mixing Spoon

Ingredients
  

  • 12-16 Sweet Hawaiian Rolls
  • 4 Eggs
  • 8 Brown Mushrooms Sliced
  • 8 oz Shredded Swiss Cheese
  • 2 cups Half and Half
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
  • 2 tsp Pepper
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tbsp Cavender's Greek Seasoning or All-Purpose Seasoning
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 2 cups Fresh Spinach

Instructions
 

  • Break the Kings Hawaiian Rolls into 1 inch sized pieces, and let them sit out for a few hours. You'll want them to dry out.
  • Slice all of your mushrooms and sauté them in a pan with some olive oil. Make sure they are good and tender. Turn off the heat and let them cool once fully cooked.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat your eggs then add in your half and half. Mix wet ingredients fully, then add your seasonings and Worcestershire sauce. Once wet ingredients are fully mixed, slowly fold in your mushrooms, Swiss cheese, and spinach. I folded in my spinach fresh without sautéing beforehand. Fold in bread pieces to the mixture. Let sit for about 10 minutes to let the bread soak up all of the liquid. Transfer it to a greased 9x12 casserole dish.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes. The color of the pudding will be a golden brown. Serve hot and enjoy!
