Ingredients:
4 ounces butter |
5 slices homemade type white bread |
8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese |
1 small zucchini |
1 small red bell pepper |
1 small green bell pepper |
1 small onion |
2 cups milk |
3 large eggs |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon dry mustard |
1 teaspoon dry basil |
to taste pepper |
Directions:
1. Assembly: Butter an 8 X 8 pan.
2. Generously butter 1 side of bread and cut into 1/2 inch cubes and arrange evenly in pan. (I use Pepperidge Farm Toasting White Bread, crusts and all.)
3. Coarsely grate 8 cheese and arrange evenly on bread.
4. Dice fairly fine 1/3 cup of each: zucchini, red pepper, green pepper, and onion. Toss together and arrange evenly on cheese.
5. Beat eggs with milk and salt and dry mustard powder. Pour over vegetables.
6. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
7. Preheat oven to 350. Sprinkle strata with black pepper and basil.
8. Put strata in larger pan filled with enough boiling water to reach halfway up strata pan.
9. Bake ~1 hour or until top of strata is brown and bubbling. (Water in large pan should have some bubbles but shouldn't actually boil).
