How to cook deliciously - Overnight Asparagus Mushroom Strata

1. Stage

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat, and cook and stir mushrooms until their liquid has mostly evaporated and mushrooms are beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Set the mushrooms aside.

2. Stage

Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish, and arrange 8 muffin halves, cut-sides up, in the bottom of the dish. Stuff pieces of remaining muffins into the spaces between halves. Spread 1 cup of Colby-Monterey Jack cheese over muffins in a layer, and distribute asparagus pieces, mushrooms, red pepper, and onion over cheese.

3. Stage

Whisk together eggs, milk, salt, dry mustard, and black pepper in a bowl, and pour egg mixture over muffins and vegetables. Cover the dish, and refrigerate overnight.

4. Stage

The next day, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

5. Stage

Remove casserole from the refrigerator and let stand for 30 minutes. Spread 1 cup of Colby-Monterey Jack cheese in a layer over the casserole.

6. Stage

Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted near the edge comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes before cutting into squares.
