Steps:
- Grease a 3-quart gratin dish or casserole with 1 teaspoon of the butter.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, nutmeg, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Set aside. In a small bowl, toss together the ham, tomatoes, parsley, and chives.
- To make the strata: Scatter a 1/2 cup of the cheese over the bottom of the buttered dish, cover with one-third of the bread, and then half of the tomato mixture. Repeat. Top with a final layer of bread and remaining cheese.
- Pour the egg mixture over the strata and gently press it down with the back of a large spoon to make sure the top layer is moistened with the custard. Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and drizzle it over the strata. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the strata, uncovered, until golden brown and slightly puffed, about 45 to 55 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.

SAUSAGE AND CHEESE STRATA WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES
An incredible alternative to Lasagna. You will not believe how light and puffy it bakes up. Never any thrown away. Actually better the next day in my opinion as the ingredients blend. Instead of crustless white bread I usually use Italian bread just broken into small pieces. I believe I obtained this recipe from Bon Apetit a few years ago.

HAM AND CHEESE STRATA
This recipe comes from Food & Wine magazine (1997). The recipe is credited to Diana Sturgis. I don't usually add the sun dried tomatoes, but I included them since they were in the original recipe. We usually have this for dinner, but it could be a great brunch recipe as well. The left overs are fantastic served cold. This is a delicious use of left-over ham.
