2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
8 cups cubed French or Italian bread, crusts removed

2 cups (1/2 pound) freshly grated parmesan
Hash Brown Casserole Recipe Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Spray a deep 13 by 9-inch casserole dish with vegetable oil cooking spray.
Melt butter in a large frying pan. Add the onion and saute over medium-low heat until soft, about 5 minutes Add the hash browns and break apart. Saute until soft, about 5 minutes.
In a second frying pan, saute the sausage, breaking apart large clumps. When the sausage is cooked through, remove it from pan.
