directions
Dry Bread
Heat oven to 375 degrees. Arrange bread cubes in single layer on sheet pan and bake until dry and stale feeling, about 5-10 minutes. (Alternatively, leave slices out overnight to dry.) Set aside.
Roast Red Bell Pepper
Roast pepper over stovetop flame until blackened; or cut in half and broil in the oven, skin side up, until blackened. Transfer to paper bag for 5 minutes to steam, then peel off charred skin, remove seeds, stem and dice. Set aside.
Sauté Vegetables
Melt butter in medium skillet over medium heat. Sauté minced onions until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, spinach and roasted bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes. Transfer to medium bowl; set aside.
Reduce Wine
Add wine to skillet, increase heat to medium-high and simmer until reduced to 1/4 cup, 3 minutes; set aside.
Assemble
Whisk eggs in large bowl until combined; whisk in reduced wine, heavy cream, half of the Gruyère cheese, sautéed vegetables, parsley and salt. Add bread. Combine; let sit 5 minutes so liquid can be absorbed.
Bake
Spray 9×13 baking dish or 8 ramekins with cooking spray. Spoon bread mixture into dish; sprinkle remaining cheese over surface. Bake until edges and center are puffed and slightly golden, about 25-30 minutes. Cool slightly; serve. Recipe created by Parties That Cook® www.PartiesThatCook.com
