GREEN CHILE AND CHEDDAR STRATA

 

Recipe from Weight Watchers All Time Favorites
Hands-On Prep: 10 Min
Cook: 45 Min
Serves: 6

b
• 5 slices whole-wheat bread, quartered
• 1 (4-ounce) can mild green chiles, drained and chopped
• 1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
• 3 scallions, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 2 cups low-fat (1 %) milk
• 2 large eggs
• 3 egg whites
• 1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper


Directions
1.
Spray a 2-quart baking dish with nonstick spray. Arrange the bread pieces in the baking dish, overlapping them slightly; scatter the green chiles, cheddar, scallions, and cilantro on top.

2. Whisk together the milk, eggs, egg whites, pepper sauce, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl until blended. Pour evenly over the bread; let stand, covered, for at least 1 hour or refrigerate up to overnight.

3. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350°F.

4. Bake the strata until puffed and golden and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 40-45 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes; serve hot or warm.

Plan Ahead:  One of the best things about a strata—a savory casserole consisting of bread, cheese, and/or vegetables, meat, or fish with a custard mixture to bind it all together—is that once assembled, it can be refrigerated several hours or up to overnight and baked the next day.
