Have you been looking for some creative brunch egg dishes that are a far cry from just the usual? I love egg strata bakes because they are like a casserole that you can pack lots of great fresh ingredients and then cut it into squares to serve. This savory green chile & bacon strata has the perfect combination of eggs, bacon, cheese and green chiles, but you can add different types of cheeses, asparagus, and any other ingredients you love!
