• Add the cooled prosciutto and the green onions and sun-dried tomatoes to the crouton mixture. Gently fold the ingredients until they are evenly distributed. Spoon the mixture into the baking dish and pat it down. (The croutons should form a bumpy surface.) Top with the Parmesan.
• Bake for 35 minutes, rotating the pan after 20 minutes. Bake until the top of the dish is very brown and the middle is springy. Let the strata cool for 10 minutes before serving.
• The strata tastes best the day it is prepared; otherwise, the croutons become soggy.
