This strata was a bit too eggy for my taste. I think I would use less eggs next time.

This strata was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more herbs and spices next time.

This strata was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more milk or cream next time.

I'm not a big fan of asparagus, but I really enjoyed this strata. The cheese and eggs masked the asparagus flavor well.

This asparagus strata was a hit with my family! The flavors were perfectly balanced and the texture was light and fluffy. I will definitely be making this again.
