Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat 11×7-inch baking dish or shallow casserole with nonstick cooking spray. Heat large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add oil, bell pepper, and onion. Cook 6 to 8 minutes or until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; set aside.

Meanwhile, whisk together egg whites and milk in large bowl. Stir in sausage and bread; mix well. Add cooked vegetables; mix again. Transfer mixture to prepared baking dish, pressing down lightly. (At this point, dish may be covered and refrigerated up to 6 hours before baking.)

Bake, uncovered, 40 to 45 minutes or until puffed and center is set. Remove from oven. Sprinkle cheese over pudding. Return to oven; bake 2 minutes or until cheese melts slightly. Cut into 6 squares.
