HAM AND ASPARAGUS STRATA

Steps:

• Repeat the layer: Add another layer of cubed bread, ham, asparagus, Gruyere, and milk egg mixture. Press down on the mixture with your (clean) hands to help the bread soak up more of the milk mixture. At this point you can make up to a day ahead, cover and refrigerate until ready to cook.
• Bake: Cover with aluminum foil and place in the 350°F oven for 40 minutes. Remove the foil. Bake uncovered for an additional 20 to 30 minutes, until the egg mixture is set. Test by inserting a sharp knife into the center of the casserole. If the inside is still runny, it's not cooked through yet and needs more time in the oven. If the top starts to get too browned, you can cover again with aluminum foil. Remove from oven and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

OVERNIGHT ASPARAGUS BREAKFAST CASSEROLE WITH HAM

Steps:

• Rinse asparagus and snap off woody ends of the stems. Cut spears into 1-inch pieces.
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add asparagus; cover and cook for 4 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add onion and red pepper. Cook uncovered for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Place bread cubes in a 9x13-inch baking dish coated with non-stick cooking spray. Sprinkle evenly with chopped ham, spoon on the cooked vegetables, and top with 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese.
• In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, basil, salt, and pepper. Pour evenly over bread mixture in baking dish.
• Cover and refrigerate 12-24 hours.
• Bake uncovered at 350℉ for 45-55 minutes, until set and golden brown.
• Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese. Bake for 5-10 minutes more, until cheese is melted.
• Allow to stand 10 minutes before serving.
• To break off the woody bottoms of the asparagus stems, just hold onto a spear of asparagus toward the bottom with both your hands. Bend the asparagus spear gently until it snaps. It will naturally snap apart at the best place to separate the woody end and tender tip. Or, just cut the spears with a knife, cutting where the green color fades if you'd prefer.
• If the asparagus is young and thin, you just need to trim off the very bottom of the spears -- no need to snap the spears because there's really no thick, woody part to them yet.
• I sometimes use a mixture of Swiss and Monterey Jack cheese, or a mixture of Swiss and mozzarella.
• It's important for this casserole to sit refrigerated for at least 12 hours. This allows the bread cubes to absorb the egg/milk mixture, and creates the casserole's fluffy texture when baked. I don't recommend short-cutting this step.
