Take a large bowl and add the onions, bread, and sausages to it, set it aside. In a medium bowl, mix eggs, egg substitute, cheese, and milk with a whisk. Now, combine the bread mixture and milk mixture, toss to coat the bread. Coat a 2 quart baking dish with cooking spray and spoon the mixture into it.
