Spinach & Gouda Sprouted Wheat Strata

October 25, 2023 Amanda Plott

The first time I had a strata was some years back at a local tea house we have here. It was DELICIOUS. My mind was completely blown. So what is a strata? Well, it’s basically sort of a savory version of a french toast casserole. Bread, eggs, cheese, some veg, all baked to perfection.

So when I started this strata, I wanted to be sure to use a GOOD ‘healthy’ bread and plenty of veggies. Spinach is one of my favorites…
