Great recipe! Made it for a reunion with 21 people and EVERYONE loved it and had seconds (including 10 picky kids who would rather be swimming in the lake than eating!), so plan for extra! We had no leftovers and we doubled it!

I made half the recipe, used egg substitute instead of eggs and low fat cream cheese. Not sure I cared too much for this dish. It seemed like the bread pieces were too thick and there wasn't enough cream cheese or blue berries. Also, I'm not sure it baked long enough, as the center wasn't firm, but the top was browning, so I pulled it out. I may try this again, but use smaller cubes of bread.

I love the blueberries and cream cheese, very good. If you had overnight guess and served them this in the morning they would never leave. Thank you for sharing this it’s another keeper. Made this for our Worldwide Recipezaar Day Feb 10, 2002.

This is ideal for busy mornings - prepare it the night before and pop it into the oven! Although my family enjoyed this, the children ate around the cream cheese. I will prepare it again but reduce the amount of cream cheese.
