Egg Strata

Directions

1. 1
   In a 9 x 13 pyrex dish (or whatever size you want to use), melt a little butter to cover bottom or dish. Then add a layer of cut up french or italian bread (small pieces). Next add a layer of cut up cooked ham (or bacon bits). Then layer with shredded cheddar cheese.
2. 2
   In a bowl, mix about 7-8 eggs with some milk and a 1/2 tsp. mustard. Whisk together good (using a whisk that looks just like the one in Keith's drawing!)
3. 3
   Pour this mixture evenly over the dish--it will look like it's not enough, but it will rise during cooking. You can let sit overnight or if you don't have time, bake right away.
4. 4
   Bake uncovered at 350' for about 30-35 min. til bubbly.
