Cherry tomatoes bubble and burst when roasted in the oven, releasing their wonderfully sweet juices. Cheddar cheese, heavy cream, and cubes of country bread make this dish extra creamy and comforting. Ingredients 8 large eggs 2 cups heavy cream Kosher salt and black pepper 8 ounces sharp Cheddar, grated (about 2 cups) 1 loaf country bread, torn into 1-inch pieces (8 cups) 1 pound sliced deli ham, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (4 cups) 2 pints cherry tomatoes 2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley Directions Heat oven to 375° F. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper. Add Cheddar, bread, and ham; toss to combine; and then pour the mixture into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Top casserole with tomatoes, cover with foil, and then bake until warmed through, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove foil and cook until the top is golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes more. Sprinkle with parsley.
