Hatfield Ham and Veggie Strata
I just love holiday baking and cooking. I have to admit that I went a little overboard for Thanksgiving, so we had plenty of leftovers. However, I have a ton of great recipes that I enjoy making with them. One of my favorites is this Hatfield Ham and Veggie Strata.
What is a Strata?
When I told my son I was making a Hatfield Ham and Veggie Strata for dinner, he asked what is a strata? Good question. A strata is a layered, baked dish of eggs, bread and cheese with the addition of vegetables, herbs and/or meat. This is a great dish to make with leftovers because just about anything can be tossed into the dish!
What is in the Hatfield Ham and Veggie Strata?
For this dish, I used the following ingredients:
- Hatfield Original Hardwood Smoked Ham Steak
- English Muffins
- Red Bell Pepper
- Green Bell Pepper
- Vidalia Onion
- Shiitake Mushrooms
- Cheddar Cheese Blend
- Eggs
- Milk
- Dijon Mustard
- Worcestershire Sauce
- Garlic Powder
- Coarse Ground Black Pepper
How do I make the Hatfield Ham and Veggie Strata?
The strata is super easy to make! Start by preparing an 11 x 7 baking dish with cooking spray or butter. Toast the English muffins and break them into chunks. Then combine the English muffins, red and green bell pepper, onion and shiitake mushrooms in a baking dish.
Next, add the cheese and Hatfield ham, toss with a spoon to combine.
In a medium bowl, blend together eggs, milk, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce and pepper with a hand mixer.
Pour egg mixture over the muffin mixture. Cover and place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight. The longer the dish sits, the more the consistency of the strata will be like a custard.
When ready to bake, remove dish from refrigerator and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Then, bake for approximately 35 to 40 minutes, or until eggs set and the top lightly browns. If desired, take out of oven after 30 minutes and sprinkle with cheese, then finish off in the oven.
After removing from oven, let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Then, enjoy hot! That is it, super easy and a great prepare ahead dish made with leftovers.

What else can I add to the Hatfield Ham and Veggie Strata?
This dish is so versatile! Some other ingredients I have used are: broccoli, artichoke hearts, cherry tomatoes, and diced jalapeño. It can also be topped with chopped green onions and/or salsa. The type of cheese used could easily be changed up as well!
Is the strata gluten-free?
I used regular English muffins in this dish. However, it can easily be prepared as a gluten-free dish by using gluten-free English muffins or bread.
How do I store the strata?
The Hatfield Ham and Veggie Strata is best eaten warm out of the oven. However, it can be stored in the refrigerator covered for 2 to 3 days. Then, rewarm it in the oven covered with tin foil.
Where can I find Hatfield Ham?
Hatfield Ham is ethically raised, gluten-free and made in America by a family owned company. It is available at many locations: ShopRite, ACME, Giant Carlisle, Stop n Shop, Price Chopper, and Hannaford. I found mine at Hannaford here in Maine. I love that it is so tasty and always fully-cooked. It is perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner. As I mentioned above, it is so versatile and it makes mealtime preparation easy.
