Ham, Egg and Cheese Bake

(from Rachael Ray Magazine)

Ingredients:
4 to 6 slices white bread, crust trimmed and discarded, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 4 cups)
8 ounces sliced deli ham, coarsely chopped (or add extra layer of tomatoes)
2 1/2 cups shredded monterey jack cheese
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
6 large eggs
1/2 cups milk
Salt and pepper
2 plum tomatoes, thinly sliced

Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°. Grease a 2-quart baking dish. Layer the bread, ham, 2 cups cheese and 2 tablespoons chives in the dish. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Pour into the dish and top with the tomato slices in an even layer.
2. Bake the eggs until nearly set, about 30 minutes. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup cheese and 1 tablespoon chives on top and bake until golden.
