A strata is traditionally a layered casserole in the same family as a quiche or a frittata, that is, layering delicious veggies with cheese and egg and baking it in the oven. We love this family of dishes, and even more so with this stellar recipe for slow cooker cheddar bacon strata. A brilliant opportunity to enjoy the immensely underrated breakfast-for-dinner phenomenon, this savory feast is actually packed with a satisfying balance of hash brown potatoes, deliciously sauteed onion and bell pepper, and grated cheddar cheese, all brought together in a soft pillow of scrambled egg.
This hearty favorite has never been so simple, requiring less than 10 minutes of prep time and only a handful of budget-friendly ingredients, this is one of the most delicious dinners that you can whip up in the nick of time without being afraid of breaking the bank. What's even better is that eggs are a wonderful source of protein, and you can easily add some veggies such as green beans, mushrooms, spinach or fresh tomatoes if you're looking to amp up the health benefits. However you choose to serve this dish, the whole family are sure to be absolutely delighted!

Pro tip: If you're struggling to find shredded hash brown potatoes at your local grocery store, feel free to substitute in traditional hash browns or tater tots.
