Breakfast Strata

I was look for something quick and easy tonight since I have been doing some Christmas decorating. This is one that you can do pretty far ahead of time and it makes it taste even better!!! Found in my Ready, Set, Go Weight Watchers Cookbook, this one is a definite keeper!

Weight Watchers Friends: This recipe is only 7 pts per serving!

Breakfast Strata
Serves: 8

Ingredients:

1 tsp canola oil
2 onions, chopped
8 slices turkey bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
2 cups fat-free milk
3 large eggs
3 large egg whites
1/2 tsp dried oregano
16 slices reduced-calorie whole wheat bread, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
1 cup shredded reduced-fat Swiss cheese

Directions:

Spray 9 x 13 inch baking dish with nonstick spray.

Heat oil in large nonstick skillet set over medium heat. Add onions and bacon; cook, stirring, until onions are softened and bacon is crisp cooked, about 8 minutes. Remove skillet from heat; stir in tomatoes.

Whisk together milk, eggs, egg white, and oregano in medium bowl. Spread half of bread cubes in prepared baking dish; top with half of onion mixture and half of Swiss. Pour half of milk mixture evenly over cheese. Repeat to make one more layer. Cover baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to overnight.

Preheat oven to 350F.

Remove plastic wrap from strata. Bake until puffed, golden, and knife inserted into center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let stand 5 minutes before cutting into 8 portions.
