Breakfast Casserole

01Method

1. 1

   Place bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook, turning as needed, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain, then break into crumbles.

2. 2

   Heat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Coat the bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch baking dish with grease.

3. 3

   Arrange the potatoes, bell peppers, onion, and jalapeño in an even layer in the prepared dish. Scatter half the cheddar over the vegetables, then distribute the bacon crumbles on top.

4. 4

   In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, black pepper, salt, and paprika until combined. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the layered ingredients.

5. 5

   Bake until the egg mixture is fully set, about 35 minutes. Remove from the oven, sprinkle the remaining cheddar over the top, and return to the oven for another 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and lightly golden.
