My family started the tradition of eating a bread, egg, and sautéed veggie strata -- that we've always called a frittata -- for Christmas morning breakfast many years ago. When I got married, I found my husband's family eats bagels with cream cheese and lox and/or smoked salmon for Christmas breakfast. This year I decided to combine the two traditions into a strata made with bagels, cream cheese, and salmon. The unique texture of bagels makes this a very sturdy strata, which is nice and hardy, but you can also use regular bread if you prefer a softer, eggier texture.
