Ingredients for Bacon Strata:
Method of preparing the Bacon Strata:
-
Add the eggs, milk, and black pepper to a large bowl, and whisk well.
-
Add the shredded cheese (save some for later), the French bread, the bacon, and the green onions. Mix well.
-
Take one sheet of foil and fold it in half lengthwise, twice. Repeat this with the second sheet of foil. Fold the remaining sheet so it fits into the back edge of your slow cooker. Criss-cross the foil strips and use them to line the bottom and sides of your slow cooker. Then spray the inside with some cooking spray.
-
Add the mixture to the slow cooker, set it to low, and cook for 4 hours. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top during the remaining 15 minutes.
