*Strata is a type of casserole dish popular for brunch that consists of bread, eggs, cheese, and any other fillings of choice such as meat and vegetables. Strata means “layers” and indicates that the bread and filling are layered before the egg mixture is poured on top. The casserole dish can be prepared beforehand and sit overnight in the refrigerator before baking (add an additional 10 minutes of baking time, if doing so from refrigerator temperature).
