Leftovers, I just love them. Here is a way to repurpose any leftover stuffing from Christmas. Any type will work although you might want to alter the type of cheese. I used goat cheese, parmesan would also be good. Toss in leftover greens to up the nutritional value.

I used leftovers from Kale and Caramelized Onion Stuffing in this strata but it would also have been delicious using my standard Sausage with Raisin Stuffing.

• Leftover stuffing – I had about 4 cups
• 4 eggs, beaten
• 2 cups half-and-half (or a mixture of cream and milk to make 2 cups)
• 4 oz of soft goats cheese
• Salt and Pepper to taste

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F
2. Liberally butter a 2 quart baking dish
3. In a large bowl combine the stuffing, eggs, milky mixture, and crumbled goats cheese
4. Pour into the prepared baking dish and let sit for at least 20 minutes to overnight

5. Bake until the custard is set, this took about 55 minutes. If it was refrigerated, allow a few more minutes baking time.
6. Let sit for 10 minutes once cooked before serving.

If you have more or less stuffing, adjust the components. It should be 1 egg and 1/2 cup of milk to each cup of stuffing.
