Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9"-x-13" baking dish with olive oil.

Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish. Top with remaining 1/2 cup cheese and bake 50 to 55 minutes, until cheese is golden and no liquid remains.

Allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

You can also portion and freeze the strata for later!
