    A great savoury food for training rides, with bread. You can make these by the truckload, individually wrap them, and store them in the freezer.

    Ingredients 

    • 4 cups of your favourite 
    bread, cut into cubes
    • 2 cups milk
    • 4 eggs, lightly beaten
    • ½ cup grated cheese (such as parmesan, mozzarella or cheddar)
    • ½ cup bacon or other cooked meat, chopped into small pieces
    • Brown sugar
     

    Preparation

    • Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
    • Put the bread cubes in a large bowl. In a saucepan, bring the milk to a simmer. Pour the hot milk over the bread cubes and mix. Let rest for just a minute until the bread is soaked. (Gluten-free breads will take a bit longer to absorb the liquid.)
    • Add eggs, cheese and bacon, and stir to combine. Pour into a loaf pan and bake until firm, about 20 minutes.
    • Sprinkle some brown sugar and salt on top, and let cool before wrapping.
