EASY SAUSAGE STRATA
This strata is really easy to make. Put it together the day before, then just remove from the refrigerator and bake. Ham or bacon can be substituted for the sausage. Sometimes I add cooked chopped broccoli for a change of pace.

BREAKFAST STRATA
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325˚F.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Fold in the croutons and semihard and semisoft cheeses and set aside.
- In a small skillet, sauté the prosciutto until golden and crisp. Using a slotted spoon, remove the prosciutto from the skillet and let it cool on a plate lined with paper towels. Pour the drippings that remain in the skillet into a 9 × 13-inch baking dish, using a spatula to spread the oil until the dish is lightly coated.
- Add the cooled prosciutto and the green onions and sun-dried tomatoes to the crouton mixture. Gently fold the ingredients until they are evenly distributed. Spoon the mixture into the baking dish and pat it down. (The croutons should form a bumpy surface.) Top with the Parmesan.
- Bake for 35 minutes, rotating the pan after 20 minutes. Bake until the top of the dish is very brown and the middle is springy. Let the strata cool for 10 minutes before serving.
- The strata tastes best the day it is prepared; otherwise, the croutons become soggy.
COUNTRY BREAKFAST STRATA
Strata is a great way to use up leftover things from the fridge. The stale bread makes a crust and soaks up the seasoned egg mixture and any combination of chopped veggies, breakfast meat and cheeses that make this hearty cheesy and yummy! I love that you can switch up the bread, veggies meats and cheeses to your preference.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- Cube approximately 2C. day old (stale) bread and place in casserole dish. (I used 3 whole grain english muffins that were drying out)
- Melt margarine in microwave and pour over cubed bread and lightly season with garlic powder. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes till it starts to get golden brown. (Make it quicker: broil for 5 minutes - watch it closely so it doesn't scorch)
- Meanwhile get the egg mixture into a mixing bowl and scramble well. Set aside. *dried thyme or sweet basil works in this too...
- Chop veggies & meats (my combo was baby spinach, chopped broccoli, mushrooms, green onion, deli ham & sausage)
- After bread bcomes browned pour egg mixture over it and top with 1/4 shredded cheese, all the veggie & meat mixture, then another 1/4 cheese & finally frozen hash browns (season if desired). Bake for 30 minutes. *to crisp up hashbrowns broil for last 5 minutes or pre fry on stovetop*
- Remove casserole from oven and top with remaining cheese blend (my combo was colby jack & pepper jack) bake for 5 minutes to melt cheese then let stand on stovetop for 5 minutes. Cut into squares and serve immediately. Great for Brunch or even a lighter dinner.
BREAKFAST STRATA WITH COUNTRY SAUSAGE
Steps:
- Brush a large gratin dish with some of the oil.
- To cook the sausage, in a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook until it begins to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the onion and red and yellow bell peppers and saute until the onion is golden, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 45 to 60 seconds.
- To assemble the strata, place half of the bread cubes in the prepared gratin dish and top with half of the sausage mixture. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of the grated cheese over the sausage mixture and top with the remaining bread cubes and sausage.
- Whisk together the eggs, milk, sage, and parsley in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the custard over the strata. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours and up to 12 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Let the chilled strata stand at room temperature for 20 minutes.
- Bake the strata for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup cheese; continue baking until the strata is puffed and golden brown, an additional 20 to 25 minutes. (If the top of the strata starts to get too brown, cover it with aluminum foil.) Remove to a rack to cool slightly. Serve hot or warm.
