Prep Time: 5 Minutes

Cook Time: 25 Minutes

Servings: 8 servings

Difficulty: Easy

Recipe Ingredients:

6 pastured eggs

1 1/2 cups organic cream (not ultrapasturized)

1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded (preferably from grass fed cows)

3 green chilies, finely diced or 1 small jar of green chilies

1/2 medium onion, finely diced

1 tablespoon butter

6 sprouted corn tortillas

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Recipe Instructions:

Melt butter in a skillet and add onions and chilies (if using jar chilies only cook onions). Sautee on low heat for about 2 minutes or until translucent. Set aside to cool slightly.

Grease a 9 or 10 inch pie dish and layer the bottom with sprouted corn tortillas. You may need to break a few in half to cover the entire bottom. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the tortillas.

In a medium bowl, beat together eggs, cream, salt, cooled onions and green chilies. Pour into the dish over tortillas and cheese.

At this point you may refrigerate overnight or bake directly.

To bake, place dish in a 425 degree oven for about 25 minutes until just set. The strata may slightly jiggle in the very center. Be careful not to overcook.
