Spinach-Feta Strata

Here's what we had for breakfast today . . .

Verdict: DELICIOUS! MUST MAKE AGAIN!

If you want to make it yourself, here's how:


Spinach-Feta Strata


10 slices French bread ( 1-inch thick)
6 eggs
1 1/2 c. milk
1 10-oz. box chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1/2 t. salt
1/4 t. groung nutmeg
1/4 t. black pepper
1 1/2 c. (6 oz.) shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 c. (4 oz.) crumbled feta cheese

1. In a greased 13x9 pan, arrange French bread in a single layer.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, spinach, salt, nutmeg and pepper. Pour over bread in pan.
3. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours (or overnight).
4. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center of the strata comes out clean. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

A couple of notes:

• I actually chunked up my bread because it was very dry and difficult to slice and it was still yummy.
• Also, I actually prepared this on Wednesday night and baked it this morning (Friday) - and it was yummy.
• Great to have for a busy morning when I still want to have a hearty breakfast for my family.
