Egg Strata With Goat Cheese And Herbs Recipes

GREEN STRATA WITH GOAT CHEESE AND HERBS

Steps:

• In a medium pot, bring milk and cream to a simmer.
• Meanwhile, place greens, herbs, cheese, salt and pepper in a food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Once the hot milk mixture comes to a simmer, pour over greens and purée until smooth. Pour into a bowl and let cool completely. Once cool, whisk in 6 eggs.
• Lightly oil a 9-by-13-inch baking pan. Scatter bread cubes over bottom of pan. Pour custard over bread and press down so the bread absorbs the custard. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. If you can, stir bread cubes after an hour or so to encourage an even distribution of custard.
• When you are ready to bake the strata, heat oven to 350 degrees. Tuck the goat cheese rounds into and on top of the strata. Transfer pan to oven and bake until top is beginning to firm up but is still slightly wet underneath, about 25 minutes.
• Remove pan from oven and use a spoon to make 6 evenly spaced indentations on the surface of the strata. Crack an egg into each hole and season with salt and pepper. Return pan to oven and continue to bake until strata is cooked through and eggs are just set, 20 to 25 minutes more. Sprinkle with Aleppo or Turkish pepper if desired.

THE CREAMIEST SCRAMBLED EGGS (WITH GOAT CHEESE)

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a large bowl. Add the milk, salt and about 10 twists of black pepper. Whisk until the mixture is thoroughly combined and pure yellow. Be sure to have your remaining ingredients prepped and ready, because this recipe comes together quickly once you start cooking.
• Warm a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt.
• Add the spinach and cook, stirring with a silicone or rubber spatula, until the spinach is wilted and bright green, about 1 to 2 minutes.
• Pour the eggs into the skillet and reduce the heat to medium-low. Use your spatula to gently stir and push the eggs around the skillet until the eggs are clumpy but still slightly wet, about 3 to 5 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from the heat. Add the goat cheese, green onion and sun-dried tomatoes, and gently stir to combine. Divide the mixture into bowls. Sprinkle lightly with optional flaky sea salt, and serve with toast if you'd like. Serve promptly.

EGG & TOMATO STRATA RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and salt.
• Add the bread and toss so that all of the bread is saturated with liquid.
• Refrigerate the mixture and let it sit for at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
• Take the egg and bread mixture out of the fridge and add the tomatoes, chickpeas, basil, and goat cheese to the mixing bowl. Toss everything together to thoroughly combine.
• When you're ready to bake the strata, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
• Heat olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Swirl the oil to coat the bottom and at least an inch (2 cm) up the sides.
• Pour the combined ingredients into the skillet, then use a spatula to spread everything evenly over the skillet, pressing the bread into a flat, even layer.
• Bake the strata in the preheated oven until the eggs are completely set and the edges are golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Take the strata out of the oven and let it sit in the pan for at least 15 minutes.
• Flip the cooled strata out of the pan and onto a cutting board, then slice it into four portions.
• Eat immediately, or let the strata cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the fridge.
• Note: To reheat the strata: Microwave for 1 minute on high, or reheat in a 375°F (190°C) oven for 5 minutes, just to heat through.
• Enjoy!
