Tomato Cheddar Strata

A strata is a savory version of a sweet bread pudding that can showcase vegetables, warm melted cheese and fresh spring herbs. It’s one of the best brunch recipes for a crowd, containing 8 eggs, two cheeses, and a loaf of crusty bread. But best of all, it’s all the better when assembled the night before, enabling the bread to soak up all the flavors.

Ingredients

  • Eggs
  • Milk
  • Broccoli
  • Grape tomatoes
  • 1 loaf crusty bread
  • Herbes de Provence

Refrigerating this dish after assembling, whether it’s for several hours or overnight, is key to allowing the flavors to blend together. It can be served warm or at room temperature, making it one of the most versatile savory brunch recipes. Get the full recipe.

Pea and Prosciutto Salad

As much as we love our sweet and savory Easter Sunday brunch recipes, a spring salad brings some freshness to the table.

Ingredients

  • Lemon juice
  • Dijon mustard
  • Arugula
  • Fresh green peas
  • Sugar snap peas
  • Prosciutto

These fresh vegetables boil in just two minutes and plunging them in a bath of ice water afterward preserves their bright green color. Dress the greens with the dressing before topping with thin slices of prosciutto. Get the full recipe.
