Asparagus Cheese Strata

Category: Vegetable

1 1/2 lbs fresh asparagus, cut into 2-in
pieces
3 Tbsp butter, melted
1 loaf (1 lb) sliced bread, crusts removed
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
2 cups cubed fully cooked ham (bacon)
6 eggs
3 cups milk
2 tsp dried minced onion
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp dry mustard

In a saucepan, cover asparagus with water; cook until just tender but still firm. Drain and set aside. Lightly brush butter over one side of the bread slices. Place half of the bread, buttered side up, in a greased 13x9x2-inch baking dish. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese. Layer with asparagus and ham. Cover with remaining bread, buttered side up. In a bowl, lightly beat eggs; add milk, onion, salt and mustard; pour over bread. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Bake, uncovered, at 325 for 50 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Return to the oven for 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.

yeld: 10-12 servings
