Instructions
- Grease a 9x13 baking dish.
- Layer half of the bread cubes on the bottom of the baking dish, followed by 1 cup Monterrey jack cheese, 1 cup cheddar cheese, and 1 cup ham. Repeat layers once more.
- In a medium bowl, mix eggs, milk, and melted butter in a bowl. Pour over layers.
- Cover with aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight.
- When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Bake the strata covered with aluminum foil for 20 minutes, then uncover and continue baking for an additional 25-30 minutes. This will help it cook more evenly without overbaking the top.

Notes
- Perfect prep. Use room-temperature milk or the butter will harden into little flakes or droplets instead of mixing in smoothly.
- Make ahead. This recipe is at its best when made ahead and refrigerated overnight before baking, so making it ahead of time is encouraged.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container(s) in the fridge for 3-4 days or in the freezer for 2-3 months.
