Monte Cristo Strata

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Going to a restaurant for Sunday brunch can be wonderful, but, maybe you prefer the comfort and economy of a home-cooked meal, especially when you are entertaining guests. A strata, including this one, is a great way to go, since you make it the night before, and when you are ready the next day, just pop it in the oven.

    Monte Cristo Strata, Going to a restaurant for Sunday brunch can be wonderful, but, maybe you prefer the comfort and economy of a home-cooked meal, especially when you are entertaining guests A strata, including this one, is a great way to go, since you make it the night before, and when you are ready the next day, just pop it in the oven , We love breakfast stratas & this one is now at the top of the list! For being so simple it’s absolutely delicious I made one side without cheese for half the family who can’t eat it & they loved it just as much as the cheesy side of the family did 🙂 I went easy on the hot sauce but next time I’ll go the full amount as we couldn’t taste any heat at all We tried the strata with ketchup, salsa & horseradish I added a sprinkle of paprika on top but think cayenne would be nice next time too We can’t wait to make this again It easily reduced by half to feed 4 & we really enjoyed it Thanks for sharing, Alan!
