    I was really dissapointed. However, I knew before I baked the dish that the reviews were not so good. I listened to everyone's tips, I added 1 cup of heated honey, 3 cups sugared strawberries, 1 cup of milk, 4 medium eggs and I added a little bit of vanilla extract. I shop at walmart, I couldn't find any ciabatta bread so I had to use French Bread. The mixture was a lot less liquidy than Giada's recipe, yet the bread was still so soggy. I don't know how to make the bread not soggy, if anyone can figure that out then the recipe would be really good. I heard reviews of it being really bland after adding extra ingredients in, I did not have that problem. I think it would turn out better if the bread was slightly cripsy throught the whole dish. I don't know how much more I can eat, I think vanilla ice cream or cool-whip would be good topping to make it edible. It looked really good, but the taste is not so good.

    I have made this several times and it has always come out to perfection. I plan on making again for Easter and my family and friends who have tasted this at my home before are VERY excited this is in the plan for one of the deserts. LOVE it!

    When I saw it on the show I wanted a piece of it so bad that I went out shopping for the ingredients. It came out mushy, wet, weird sponge texture and not sweet. Thank goodness I saved the ciabata crust and was able to eat that with blueberry preserves n butter! The strata is not edible to me. Very disappointed. Please I want a reeimbursement. PS: usually my dishes do not come out like the recipes but always good enough to eat. This one, no way!
