Grease a 1 1/2 quart baking dish with butter or cooking spray. It’s got enough flavor and heft to serve as a one-dish meal or you can turn up the volume on your brunch with a few additions, such as these Wild Blueberry Parfaits or a batch of Scones or Baked Donuts. Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Best of all, the entire pan can be prepped in advance and stored in the fridge until ready to bake.


Milk and cottage cheese get whisked into the eggs, making the finished dish particularly light and fluffy. BEAT eggs, milk and thyme in medium bowl until blended pour over bread. Since eggs play a central role in this dish, I look for quality organic eggs, which can be found quite affordably at my local Sprouts Farmers Market. PLACE bread in single layer in greased 8-inch square baking dish. Ham and Cheese Strata is a simple overnight casserole thats so good for breakfast, brunch or even a weeknight meal Made with eggs, bread, ham and two. While strata is commonly made with sausage or bacon, I gave this a vegetarian spin, relying instead on sun-dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts, and herbs for flavor. A strata is akin to a frittata, with the addition of bread to soak up the eggy custard and form an appealing crusty lid. Today’s recipe for Mediterranean Spinach and Egg Strata is tailor-made for brunching at home. That all being said, there’s nothing quite like putting a bit of effort into brunch made in the comfort of your own kitchen where there’s no need to wait for a table. Pour slowly over the bread mixture, pushing the bread down into the liquid. It’s a ritual we enjoy as a family from time to time, communing with our neighbors and thumbing through the Sunday paper while sipping coffee far fancier than we make at home. Add the bell pepper and green onion and cook until the pepper is tender and cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes. Whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, mustard, and pepper. If the hoards of hungry diners lined up outside my city’s breakfast hot spots every weekend is any indication, “doing brunch” is more popular than ever.

Stir in bread and cheese until completely coated.
