This has become my go-to brunch recipe. Everyone always loves it - kids as well as adults. Get the best brie you can find - a cheap tasteless brie will affect the finished product.

Brie added creaminess and richness but not a sharp flavor. The strongest tastes were sausage and cream. (I made the dish exactly as recipe described.) The bread at the bottom was soggy. It stayed together in the bottom of the dish as one big piece of wet bread. I wanted to make something special for a friend's birthday breakfast, but I'll go back to my old standby.

Easy to make, fabulous taste. It could be lightened by substituting milk for some of the cream.
