We're willing to bet the best way to a dad's heart is through a hearty, extra-special breakfast. We're talking bacon and beer pancakes, biscuit and egg "pizzas," and mammoth burritos packed with strips of carne asada-style steak. So if you really want to make the most of Father's Day, forget about toaster pastries and cereal, and let the celebration start with what you put on his plate.

What's a strata, you ask? It's essentially a breakfast bread pudding, and can be primarily prepared in advance. Let cubes of white bread meld with a mustard-spiked custard, as well as bacon, cheese, and mushrooms overnight. The next morning, all you need to do is pop it in the oven, and you'll have an ideal Father's Day breakfast feast.
