1 1/3 cups shredded reduced fat sharp Cheddar cheese

Add mushrooms; cook and stir 4 minutes or until moisture is released. Add sausage; cook and stir 5 minutes or until browned. Spread sausage mixture in prepared dish; sprinkle with bread and cheese. In medium bowl, whisk eggs, egg whites and milk; pour over bread.
