Best Ham Swiss On Rye Strata Recipes

HAM AND CHEESE STRATA

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 AND SWISS STRATA

Steps:

• Place half of the bread cubes in a greased 11x7x2-inch baking dish.
• Sprinkle with half of the parsley, onion, ham and cheese.
• Repeat layers.
• In a bowl, beat eggs, milk, mustard, salt, pepper and hot pepper sauce.
• Pour over cheese.
• Bake, uncovered, at 350 for 35-40 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.

HAM & SWISS PARTY RYE BITES

Steps:

• Lay the party rye out on baking sheets. Place a generous amount of ham on top. On top of ham, place a piece of swiss cheese.
• To make it easier I usually slice the ham and cheese after unwrapping it, into pieces large enough to fit each slice of the party rye.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bake until cheese melts.
• Have some mustards out in case your guests would like to put some on their party ryes.
• These may be made earlier in the day, and refrigerated up until an hour before placing in oven.
• Buy more or less depending on your party size.
