The corn flakes are an interesting addition I'll have to try. I'm sure the strata is much better with your fresh eggs. Happy New Year. Carol Thanks Suzy.

Your "Betty's la Strada" is like my Christmas breakfast recipe. My recipe, from my Mother too must have Pepperidge Farm or Arnold bread, only I cube 16 slices with the crust cut off and place half in the bottom of a butter 9x13 then add cheddar, swiss cheese and ham cubed (the cheese is supposed to be grated but that means another dirty dish and more time, which I have very little)then the remaining bread cubes. The egg, milk, dry mustard, salt and pepper mixture pours over the cut up ingredients and then, a twist to your recipe, crushed up corn flakes tossed in butter placed over top. Cover up dish in plastic wrap and set in the fridge over night. In the morning when Santa has arrived I immediately put it in the oven and when we are finished opening gifts, our breakfast is ready. Carol even Jim enjoys reading your newest events, travels and recipes. This is another creative extension of your many, many talents. When I am at work I enjoy reading your recipes in the newspaper. I love it, keep it coming!! Suzy Hi Carol,
