Chorizo Tomato Strata

Directions

• Crumble chorizo into a small skillet; cook and stir over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain. Stir in 1/3 cup cheese and cilantro.
• Preheat oven to 350°. Rub cut side of garlic clove over bread slices; discard garlic. Place bread in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Top with tomatoes, meat mixture and remaining cheese.
• In a large bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, pepper, onion powder and pepper flakes. Pour over casserole.
• Bake, uncovered, 35-45 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean (cover loosely with foil if top browns too quickly). Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.
