Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and drained spinach and cook 2 minutes more. Set aside.
- Butter a 3-quart or 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread one third of the bread cubes in the dish and top evenly with one third of spinach mixture. (Try to break it up as much as possible so there are no huge clumps of spinach.) Sprinkle with one third of each cheese. Repeat layering twice, ending with cheeses.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the half-and-half, mustard, salt, pepper, and nutmeg and whisk until well combined. Pour the custard mixture evenly over the strata. Cover the strata with plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Bake the strata, uncovered, until puffed, set and golden brown all over top, 70-80 minutes. Let stand 10 to 15 minutes before serving. It will settle a bit as it cools.
- Note: The cook time is based on the strata going immediately from the fridge to the oven. If it sits out at room temperature before baking, the cook time will be about 10 minutes less.

MAKE-AHEAD CHEESY SPINACH AND EGG STRATA
If you are a spinach lover, then you will have to try this recipe! I have made this many times to serve at a brunch get together (I always make two of these to serve at a brunch!) Plan ahead this dish needs to chill for a minimum of 8 hours or up to 24 hours or until the custard is absorbed in the bread. You can really use any cheese that you wish I find that either asiago or Gruyere are the best! If you don't want a strong spinach taste then use only one box of frozen spinach. To save time make the spinach/mushroom filling up to 1 day in advance and refrigerate, just warm slightly in the microwave before layering in the strata. You will LOVE this!
