    5 stars = I know how to manage this one. The mushrooms want a splash of Worcestershire and the eggs won't need any special treatment. Consider substituting a seeded ciabatta for baguette, and definitely leave crust on the bread!

    I love this recipe! It's such a great deal with the egg whites and whole wheat bread. I have been halving it, and using the bread/egg ratio a base. Then I pull out whatever veggies or leftover meats I have around and toss them in! I used sausage, peppers, onions, and tomatoes for an Italian theme, or spinach, mushrooms, and chicken. I wonder if it would work with a Tex-Mex theme... there are so many possibilities! It's also really tasty reheated! My baking dish is kinda deep, so it takes a little while longer to cook. Honestly though, good things come to those who wait! Many thanks to Elie Krieger!

    Loved it! It's healthy and can be made in advance. I used it for a Bridle shower and everyone liked it. I think the broccoli could be exchanged for spinach, but I really like spinach!

    This took 1 hour and 45 minutes to cook!! Presumably due to all the vegetables, and maybe too many egg whites, there was a LOT of liquid that needed to cook off. As far as flavor, I think it needs a boost. If I were to do it again I would substitute a pepper jack blend for the mozzarella and parmesan cheeses, and possibly add some hot sauce to the egg mixture.
    But it does look and taste healthy - that's a fact!

    I followed the recipe exactly and this smelled AMAZING but the taste was a little disappointing. I'll definitely add more salt and herbs next time.

    I have made this twice and it was a huge hit both times. Some adjustments to ensure the perfect result. Buy the bread the day prior to let it harden, day old bread always stands up better in these types of bakes. I left the crusts on for an added crunch and left out the sundried tomatoes. Both times, I had to bake at 375 for 1.5 hrs. At the one hour mark I cut into it because it was runny in the middle. No big deal at all...if is browns too much just cover it with aluminum foil and allow the middle to bake up! Delicious and will keep making it for company!

    Made this for Thanksgiving morning. Followed recipe to a t and found it rather bland. Wish I had added sausage, salt or other seasoning.

    I made this for a girls' weekend and it was a huge hit!! Really nice flavors and leftovers were great the next day...everyone loved it. Making it again for another party this weekend and I think I'll add asparagus this time. Try it!!

    We made this weekend as a healthy alternative to our sausage and cheese strata. We purchased jarred sundried tomatoes by mistake, but rinsed them. I don't know if dried ones would have made that big of a difference, but we all found the dish pretty bland. Have made a ton of Ellie's recipes and this is the first one I wouldn't make again.

    I thought the recipe was relatively easy to follow ( although I forgot to add the broccoli I doubled it & it turned out great... I did add ground up sausage which tasted great. I'm looking forward to making it again & remembering the broccoli. I don't think I'll have a problem with leftovers. I didn't have any liquid left in the bottom of the pan.
