Mom's Bread Pudding
Growing up in the Philippines, our family was very conscientious about not wasting food. If we had extra white bread that was at risk for going stale, my mom would make bread pudding. I used to eat it for breakfast, but I also loved it as a dessert—it's one of the things I miss about my childhood. Luckily, I came across my mom's recipe while doing some spring cleaning, so I started making her bread pudding again.
