Breakfast Strata with Spinach and Gruyere
I got this breakfast strata recipe from a friend of mine who is an incredible cook and baker (as in, she cooked dinner for all of her guests at her own wedding, and can make the best chocolate chip cookies on the planet). I made it for a Bubbly and Brunch bridal shower I hosted and it was a huge hit! It's delicious, not too heavy on the carbs, and meat-free for all those vegetarians. Plus, you can make it the night before and stick it in the oven in the morning, so it's perfect for holidays, parties, or cooking for visitors. (I'm not crazy about shallots, so I only used about half of what the recipe called for.) Enjoy!
