Prosciutto and Goat Cheese Strata

Ingredients
5 large eggs
2 cups milk
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Salt and pepper, to taste
18 slices firm white bread (such as English muffin bread), cubed
6 ounces prosciutto, thinly sliced
8 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
4 ounces provolone cheese, grated or cut into small cubes
14 cup green onions, chopped
6 tablespoons fresh basil, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons butter, melted

Instructions
1. Whisk eggs, milk, mustard, salt, and pepper in a bowl.  

2. In a 9x13-inch glass baking dish, mix bread, prosciutto, goat cheese, provolone and green onions.  Pour egg mixture over bread mixture and press down gently on the bread to ensure coverage.  Drizzle melted butter over strata.  Cover and refrigerate overnight or 8 hours.  

3. Preheat oven to 350°F. Uncover strata and let stand at room temperature 30 minutes. Bake until center is set, about 1 hour. Remove from oven, cut into large squares and serve.

Comments
I have no idea where I found this recipe but it’s been in my files for some time now.  Strata is normally a breakfast dish but the ingredients didn’t scream breakfast to me.  I made this for dinner to go along with steak and we all enjoyed it quite a bit!
