Ingredients

  • 1/4 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons onion, chopped
  • 4 slices caraway-dill cocktail rye bread, cubed (2 cups)
  • 1/2 cup shredded fat-free Swiss cheese (2 ounces)
  • 1/3 cup diced smoked chicken or turkey, if desired
  • 1/2 cup fat-free cholesterol-free egg product or 3 egg whites
  • 3/4 cup low-fat milk
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Steps

  • 1
    Spray two 10-ounce oval or round individual casseroles with cooking spray. Heat oil in 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook onion in oil about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender.
  • 2
    Mix onion, bread, cheese and chicken; spoon into casseroles. Beat remaining ingredients with hand beater until blended; pour over bread mixture. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours but no longer than 24 hours.
  • 3
    Heat oven to 325°F. Bake uncovered 30 to 35 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    A strata is a casserole that’s made by layering bread cubes and cheese, then pouring an egg mixture over the layers.
  • tip 2
    We’ve used rye bread, but you can use any bread you’d like—just add 1/4 teaspoon dried dill weed and 1/4 teaspoon caraway seed to keep the rye flavor.
  • tip 3
    Skip cooking the fresh onions in oil and use 1 tablespoon instant dried onion instead. Use reduced-fat cheese, white chicken meat only, no-fat milk and no-fat egg substitute.
  • tip 4
    Cater to individual tastes by varying the bread, cheese and meat in this easy strata.
