Generously butter a 9X13″ baking dish. Place bread cubes in dish and sprinkle with cheese. Beat together eggs, milk, mustard and onion powder. Sprinkle with bacon, mushrooms and tomato. Cover and chill up to 24 hrs. (I usually chill for 12 hrs or overnight). Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Bake uncovered 1 hour. Makes 12 servings.
