How to Make Breakfast Strata
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Cook 6 slices bacon until crispy. Remove from skillet, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon grease. Crumble bacon.
- Add 1/2 cup chopped onion to the skillet with the bacon grease. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add 1 cup diced ham to the skillet and cook for another 3-5 minutes, until heated through.
- Stir in the crumbled bacon. Set aside to cool.
- Grease a 13x9x2 inch baking dish.
- Layer half of the following ingredients in the prepared dish: 6 cups cubed day-old bread (about 1 loaf), 2 cups cubed potatoes (about 2 medium), and 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese.
- Top with the bacon, ham, and onion mixture.
- Repeat layers with remaining bread, potatoes, and cheese.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 2 cups milk, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Pour egg mixture evenly over the strata.
- Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
- Remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before baking.
- Bake, uncovered, for 65-70 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
