This savoury sausage, fontina, and pepper strata is the ultimate high-protein brunch dish, combining the comforting texture of a bread pudding with bold Italian flavours. The combination of spicy Italian sausages and sweet, blistered red peppers provides a wonderful depth, while the Fontina and Romano cheeses melt into the custard to create a rich, indulgent finish. It is a fantastic make-ahead option for a weekend breakfast or a relaxed Sunday lunch with friends.
As a versatile savoury bake, this strata benefits from a short resting period before hitting the oven, allowing the rustic bread to soak up the seasoned egg and cream mixture. This ensures every bite is moist and flavourful rather than dry. Serve it warm from the oven alongside a crisp green salad or some grilled tomatoes for a balanced and satisfying homemade meal that is sure to become a family favourite.
