Berry Strata

My boys love helping me make this easy, super-yummy recipe.  It's a lot like bread pudding, but creamier.  We love it for breakfast, but it would also make a great dessert.  I found the recipe while watching Giada on the Food Network one day, but I've wasn't able to find it on their website...

• 2 tbsp butter

• 2 tbsp honey
• 4 large eggs, beaten lightly
• 1/2 c. ricotta
• 3 tbsp sugar
• 1 c. milk
• 1/4 c. orange juice
• 4 slices thick day old bread, such as French bread, torn into pieces
• 1 pkg frozen mixed berries, drained

2. Mix eggs, ricotta, and sugar.
