Jean's Stuffed French Toast Strata image

We had this the morning after Christmas. This is another of my MIL's recipes. Gosh...her house smelled wonderful when this was baking. I haven't cooked this recipe myself, but my kids and DH want me to. The Apple Cider Syrup recipe is being posted and I will post it's recipe #. This tastes like it should be served with Cool Whip.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover ham. I always have some leftover ham after a holiday dinner, so this is a perfect way to use it up.

This strata is also a great make-ahead breakfast. I often make it the night before and then just pop it in the oven in the morning.
