How to Make Large Vegetable And Cheese Strata
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a large (9x13 inch) shallow baking dish.
- In a large skillet, saute 1 medium onion, 2 scallions (chopped), and 8 oz cremini mushrooms (sliced) in 2 tbsp olive oil over moderately low heat for 8-10 minutes, or until the onion is softened and all liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated.
- In another large skillet, saute 1 bell pepper (any color, chopped) in 1 tbsp olive oil with salt and pepper to taste for 5-7 minutes, until tender.
- Combine the sauteed onions, scallions, mushrooms, and bell pepper in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Arrange half of 6 cups (12 slices) crusty bread, cubed, in the prepared baking dish. Spread half of the vegetable mixture evenly over the bread.
- Sprinkle half of 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese and half of 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese over the vegetables.
- Repeat layers with remaining bread cubes, vegetables, and cheeses.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 2 cups milk, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, a dash of Tabasco sauce (or to taste), salt, and pepper to taste.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the strata.
- Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator overnight.
- Let the strata stand at room temperature for 15-30 minutes before baking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 60-75 minutes, or until puffed, golden brown, and cooked through. If browning too quickly, loosely tent with foil.
