Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, room temperature
10 large eggs
2 1/2 cups whole milk
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1 loaf bread, Pullman or sandwich style, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 pound boiled or baked deli ham, chopped
5 scallions, chopped (1/2 cup)
8 ounces sharp cheddar, shredded

Steps:

  • Butter a 2 1/2- to 3-quart baking dish. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, mustard, paprika, and salt.
  • Place half of the bread in the bottom of a baking dish. Top with half each of the ham, scallions, and cheese. Repeat with a second layer of the remaining ham, scallions, and cheese, pressing down as necessary to fit in the baking pan.
  • Carefully pour the egg mixture over into the bread. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Pull strata out of fridge and let come to room temperature for 15 minutes. Bake the strata, uncovered, until puffed and lightly golden brown, about 1 hour to 1 hour and 20 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

HAM, SPINACH, AND CHEESE STRATA

From Betty Crocker I think. Could also use ciabatta bread, or whatever bread like that you might have on hand. Could also play around with whatever cheese you have on hand. Time listed does NOT include sitting time in fridge.
