The key to a long, leisurely brunch is not having to work too hard. This breakfast-sandwich-inspired casserole is best assembled the night before, allowing the bread to soak up the egg custard. All that's left to do the next morning is pop it in the oven, bake, and enjoy.

Chef Kevin Gillespie has become a master of no-waste cooking. At his restaurant Revival in Decatur, Georgia, they've used the leftover scraps from their house-smoked ham in dishes such as stewed collard greens, fat back soup, and a breakfast casserole. This pillowy, satisfying strata is a great make-ahead brunch dish—serve it with a crisp green salad on the side.
