"Meredith Morton (played by Sarah Jessica Parker) prepares this strata for the eccentric Stone family in the movie "The Family Stone." If you have seen the movie, you undoubtedly remember the scene where this strata is dropped all over the kitchen floor! This recipe is from the DVD "special features.""

This recipe was fantastic! We added a little bit of pre-cooked pork sausage and it tasted incredible. We also have some lactose-intolerant people in our family and we made a riff on this dish for them using dairy-free mozzarella, lactose-free milk, and dairy-free parmesan. It was a hit! Definitely a recipe we'll be making for future brunches.
