I share this recipe verbally almost daily at in the Gallery. It’s from Smitten Kitchen, via my mother-in-law, and modified with local ingredients. I used our Clay Coyote Flameware Cazuela so I could start it on the stove and finish it in the over.
Egg Strata
8-10 eggs beaten
½ cup milk
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
8 oz shredded cheese, any kind
2 cups day old bread, cubed
½ onion, diced
8 oz frozen spinach, drained
Salt and pepper
Olive oil
Saute onions and spinach in oil. Beat eggs, milk, mustard, and salt/pepper. Spread cubed bread out, spread spinach and onion, and pour egg mixture over.
Bake for 60-75 minutes in a 350ºF oven. The top will be lightly browned and when jiggled and the middle doesn’t move a lot. Remove from oven and let set for 10 minutes.
