Ham and Swiss Strata
4 slices bread
5 ounces (140 g) Swiss cheese
2 eggs
1 cup (250 ml) milk
1 tablespoon (15 ml) prepared mustard
1
⁄
teaspoon (0.63 ml) pepper
8
2 to 3 slices ham (torn in pieces)
Spray an 8-inch (20 cm) square baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Lay bread in the bottom of the dish overlapping if necessary. Cut cheese
into cubes, place in blender jar; cover. Process on high for 60 seconds.
Sprinkle cheese over bread. Place eggs, milk, mustard and pepper in
blender jar and process on high speed for 15 seconds. Add ham to blender
jar and pulse 3 or 4 times or until chopped to desired consistency. Pour
over bread and cheese. Bake at 350°F (180ºC) for 40 minutes or until set.
Yield: 2 servings.
Substitution: Egg substitute can be used in place of whole eggs.
Generally, use
the egg substitute carton for the exact replacement amount.
Success Tip!
Purchase pre-shredded Swiss cheese to save time. Find it in the dairy
case with the rest of the cheese selections.

Success Tip!
The compound in hot peppers that gives them their heat can also burn skin
and eyes (think self defense pepper spray). Wear rubber or plastic gloves
when handling hot peppers or wash hands thoroughly with soap and hot
water before touching face.
