I followed the recipe exactly, but my strata didn't turn out as cheesy as I thought it would. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

The strata was a bit dry for my taste. I think it would have been better if I had used more milk or cream.

I thought this chili cheese strata was a bit bland. I would have liked it more if it had more spices.

I used a mild chili for this recipe, but you could definitely use a hotter chili if you like your food spicy.

I added some chopped green onions to the top of the strata before baking it. It gave it a nice pop of color and flavor.
