It’s very reminiscent of Italian Easter ham pie – with a few differences. Delicious recipe. I made it twice. The first time I followd the recipe exactly, the second time I switched the cheese to Italian fresh basket cheese – better yet. I also like it served cold.
Big hit!!!!
Had the whole family over for Sunday brunch. Served the strata with fresh fruit and fresh hot coffee . . . so simple and so awesome.
