DHalaby73

Here's another recipe from Giada De Laurentiis on Food Network..I redid some of the ingredients for lower versions but again I don't know what nutritional value is but it's lower then regular version..Enjoy


Ingredients
2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons honey
4 large eggs
1/2 cup part skim milk ricotta
3 tablespoons sugar
1 cup 1% milk
1/4 cup orange juice
4 slices of bread, torn into 1-inch pieces (about 4 cups)
1 (10-ounce) bag frozen mixed berries, thawed and drained
Directions
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Turn off the heat, add the honey, and stir to combine.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl combine the eggs, ricotta, and sugar. Using a fork, mix to combine and beat the eggs. Add the milk, orange juice, butter and honey mixture, and bread. Stir to combine. Gently fold in the berries.

Place the ingredients in a 10-inch round (2-quart) baking dish. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours and up to 12 hours.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the strata until golden on top and baked through, about 40 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Spoon into dishes and serve.

Yummy! Thanks for posting.

Maybe an idea:

if you put the ingredients in the "my recepies" section of your own diary, the program simply calculates the nutritional facts. And you can save it for the next time you'll going to eat this, so you can simply add it to your diary from your own my recipes box.

ok thank you I didn't know that...

Chillem

you're welcome

and you can even put your grandma's recipes on it, and it will be in the database very soon, so we can use it as well. But you should keep in mind that you cannot post this particular recipe in the general database, because you don;t have the copyright for it...
