TOMATO AND BACON STRATA
A strata is a layered bread and egg casserole, usually served as a brunch. This version is studded with diced tomato and crumbled bacon. Prepare it before you go to bed so that the eggs can soak into the bread, then bake it in the morning for a no-fuss brunch.
Yield: Serves 8.
