Description
While a traditional breakfast strata usually calls for bread, this gluten-free version incorporates frozen waffles for a savory breakfast that is both easy to make and delicious to eat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 Van’s Gluten-Free waffles, toasted and torn apart
- 1/2 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 sweet onion, diced
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 4 breakfast sausage patties, diced or crumbled (I love al fresco chicken breakfast sausage)
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup egg whites (I used egg whites from a carton to make things easier)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 avocado, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 8×8 baking dish with cooking spray and layer torn waffle pieces on the bottom.
- In a large pan, sauté onion, bell pepper and breakfast sausage in olive oil until onion is translucent and pepper is slightly soft. Remove from heat.
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, egg whites, milk, salt and pepper. Add vegetables and sausage and stir to combine.
- Pour egg and sausage mixture over waffles. Press down on mixture so everything soaks into the waffles.
- Place strata in the oven and bake for 60 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the middle of the strata comes out clean.
- Allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
- Top with avocado slices and enjoy!
