  • 1
    Bake cornbread according to instructions on the package in a 9x13 pan the day before and let sit out, covered.

  • 3
    Boil eggs. Peel and slice.
  • 4
    Brown and crumble the sausage. Add vegetable mixture to the sausage.
  • 5
    Crumble cornbread, add croutons, eggs and sausage mixture and blend.
  • 6
    Slowly add equal parts of chicken broth and evaporated milk until the mixture is very moist. About the consistency of a very thick soup. Add seasonings to taste.
