Mix ham, green onions, and sun-dried tomatoes and layer them, alternating with cubes of white bread and grated Gruyere. Pour beaten eggs over the top and bake until fluffy and golden brown. Refrigerate the ham before baking to allow the bread to absorb the liquid, so it's best to assemble the ham in the evening and bake it in the morning for breakfast.
