Instructions

  1. Trim the crusts from five slices of bread (reserve the crusts). Cut the slices in half diagonally and set them aside.
  2. Generously butter a 9-inch square baking dish or small casserole dish. Tear the remaining three slices of bread into pieces and place the pieces in the baking dish along with the reserved crusts.
  3. Over the bread, make one layer each of cheese, ham, mushrooms, and parsley.
  4. Arrange the bread triangles in two rows over the layers.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine the remaining ingredients and mix well.
  6. Slowly pour the egg and milk mixture evenly over the bread. Try to make sure that each bread triangle gets nicely saturated with milk.
  7. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and chill for at least 8 hours, preferably overnight.
  8. When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Bake for 60 to 75 minutes until golden brown on top and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
  9. Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply place individual portions in the microwave or oven until warmed through.
  • While you can freeze the unbaked strata, the texture will change upon thawing. It's best enjoyed fresh or refrigerated for a few days.
