Fresh fruit salad with lime-ginger drizzle

Make mom's day special with this delicious, easy-to-make brunch menu. While the strata bakes and the beans simmer, mix up a pitcher of our delicious Apricot sangria, and pour some drinks. Keep Mom relaxed and out of the kitchen while you (and your siblings) take care of the finer details. For dessert, our Fresh fruit salad with lime-ginger mint drizzle is a colourful make-ahead option you can dish out when the strata has disappeared.

Baked three-cheese tomato strata

If you love bruschetta and garlic bread, you will love this strata. The cheeses and tomatoes are cooked into the bread so there’s no worry of toppings falling off as you indulge.
