Breakfast Strata image

My grandmother makes this every Christmas morning, and it's amazing. My husband hates eggs and he always has seconds, even my 1- and 2-year-old gobble this up. Perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner! Ingredients are forgiving; add your favorites or spice it up. Just make sure your veggies are not going to water it down.

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound sausage, casings removed
2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
8 eggs, beaten
10 cups cubed, day-old bread
3 cups whole milk
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 ½ cups cubed Black Forest ham
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons mustard powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons butter, melted
2 teaspoons dried basil

Steps:

  • Generously grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
  • Heat a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir sausage until crumbly and completely browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer cooked sausage to the prepared casserole dish.
  • Cook and stir mushrooms in the same skillet over medium heat until liquid has been released and mushrooms are lightly browned, 5 to 10 minutes; drain.
  • Mix mushrooms, eggs, bread, milk, Cheddar cheese, ham, spinach, flour, mustard powder, salt, butter, and basil together in a large bowl; pour over sausage. Cover casserole dish and refrigerate, 2 hours to overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center of the strata comes out clean, 60 to 70 minutes.
