Step 1
Start by buttering an 8x8-inch casserole dish. Then, spread the remaining butter on the bread slices and cut each one diagonally. Place half of the bread pieces in the dish, followed by a layer of half the Swiss cheese, green onions, parsley, and shrimp. Repeat the layers with the remaining bread, cheese, green onions, parsley, and shrimp.

Step 2
In a bowl, whisk together the milk, sour cream, eggs, Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt. Pour this mixture evenly over the casserole. Cover it and pop it in the fridge for at least 8 hours, or overnight if you can.

Step 3
When you’re ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the casserole for about 30 to 40 minutes, until it’s puffed up and golden on top. Let it rest for a few minutes before cutting into squares and serving.
