Directions
Strata, Strata is the bread pudding of savory egg dishes This super-easy treat generally includes cubes or slices of bread that have been soaked in custard then baked in a casserole dish This is a great make- ahead dish It tastes best if you prepare it the day before and let it soak overnight before baking Like many egg dishes, a strata can incorporate all sorts of different ingredients, so theres a lot of flexibility here , Super easy and look forward to trying all the variations I baked mine for an additional 10 mins but would bake it even longer next time Thanks for posting , Absolutely PERFECT!!! Simple flavors, simple directions simply perfect Now that I have the basic recipe for a Strata, the sky is the limit!! OOH How about Fete cheese, spinach, tomatoes and a little ground beef?!
