Mushroom and English Muffin Strata

Baked egg dishes are a great option when you want to whip up something simple for brunch, and this mushroom and English muffin strata should get serious consideration for being at the center of your table.

Not to be confused with a frittata, which is traditionally cooked in a skillet and resembles a crust-less quiche (what is a quiche, anyway?), a strata is baked in a casserole dish or small ramekins — we went with the latter. It's essentially a savory bread pudding and this recipe uses Wolferman's Signature English Muffins which boosts the flavor of the mushroom and the eggs while adding delicious fluffy texture to the dish.
