Saute mushrooms for 4 minutes and add the bell pepper and onion and continue sauteing for another 2-3 minutes. Transfer vegetables to a plate and set aside. In the same skillet cook the sausage on medium heat and crumble as it cooks, about 8 minutes. When the sausage is fully cooked, toss the veggies back into the skillet, stir to combine and remove from heat. In a lightly oiled 10" X 15" X 2" baking dish, arrange slices of bread to cover the bottom of the dish. Top evenly with half the sausage mixture. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup mozzarella and half the tomatoes. Layer additional bread slices on top to cover and top with the remaining sausage mixture and tomatoes. In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, Italian herb seasoning, salt and pepper to blend. Slowly pour egg mixture over layered ingredients. Top with remaining mozzarella cheese. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to a day. Set oven @ 325ºF/163ºC. Bake until the center of the strata is set and top is lightly browned 50-60 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley. Let stand for 5 minutes then cut into squares and serve. (Allowing the strata to sit at room temperature about 30-45 minutes prior to baking will slightly decrease the cooking time.)
