I had a nice baguette left over and they're always best fresh, so I cut it up and made strata which turned out very good. I just used what was in the refrigerator, and it's a great recipe for that. All the proportions can be adjusted.
- 1/2 baguette - chopped or ripped up; if it's too fresh let it dry out (I left it a day in a pan with cover),
- 6 eggs
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 1 cup milk
- cheese (parmesan, extra sharp cheddar)
- salt, pepper
Mix the egg mixture into the bread and leave it to soak overnight or all day.
Chop and saute:
- onion (or green onion)
- garlic (I used 4 cloves)
- greens
- other vegetables, meat, etc. needing to be used up (had some cooked ground turkey I tossed in)
Bake at 325 degrees for 70-80 minutes.
