From BedandBreakfast.com...an untried recipe that we will make for New Year's Day brunch.

Directions
Spray PAM over the bottom and sides of a 9x13 inch baking pan. Distribute bread cubes all over the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle with garlic and herb seasoning. In a large bowl toss together the seafood, pepper, onion, parsley, bacon and lemon zest and sprinkle it over the bread cubes. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over all. Whisk together the eggs, whipping cream, milk, sherry and pepper. Pour over the seafood and cheeses. Cover with plastic wrap and chill at least 8 hours or overnight. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake for 1 hour or until casserole is golden brown. Important: Let casserole sit on top of the stove for 15-20 minutes to settle before cutting. May be kept warm in a 200 degree oven. Serves 8.
