Berry Strata image

I was watching Giada today on the food network and she whipped this up. It looked very good and pretty easy. On the episode she used only ricotta cheese and mixed berries and she warmed up the honey with 2 tbsp of butter. As I don't care for cooked strawberries I have changed the recipe to refect that. You can also use any bread that suits your fancy just make sure it is day old or at least a bit on the dry side.

I'm allergic to eggs, so I used a vegan egg substitute in this recipe. It worked great! The strata was still moist and flavorful, and the berries added a nice sweetness.

I made this berry strata in a slow cooker, and it turned out perfectly. I just sprayed the slow cooker with cooking spray, added the bread, berries, and custard mixture, and cooked it on low for 8 hours. It was a delicious and easy breakfast!
