Mixed Berry Strata

Breakfast stratas are the way to my heart! Simple to put together but so delish. This Mixed Berry Strata, served with freshly whipped cream, will leave you weak in the knees!

If you’ve never heard of a strata before, today is the DAY. It’s pretty much a breakfast casserole that consists of bread, eggs and cheese. What more could you ask for?

I like to take a base recipe and jazz it up with whatever I have on hand. You could go sweet or savory – either way is equally as delish! For brunch, I tend to serve both as options so you can taste test your way through the meal. That’s the right thing to do, wouldn’t you agree! This Mixed Berry Strata is loaded with fresh fruit and topped with freshly whipped cream and that’s all you really need in life!
