This strata was delicious, but it was a bit too time-consuming to make. I think I would only make it for special occasions.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my strata didn't turn out as fluffy as I expected. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I've made this strata several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. I like to add a bit of chopped spinach or kale for extra nutrition.
