“This is probably the tastiest way to use up old bread—a real comfort food, ideal for a brunch! If you don't have one around, simply toast a fresh loaf in the oven. Of course, you can also use chard, spinach, or other vegetables in lieu of leeks. You can also prepare the casserole one day ahead. Just store it in the fridge overnight and bake in the morning! #stayhomekeepcooking”
