Ingredients
Scale:
2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
1 teaspoon of salt
1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
1 tablespoon of dried parsley (optional)
8 large eggs
1 cup of milk
1 cup of heavy cream
6 strips of bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 cup of chopped bell peppers
1 cup of chopped onions
1 cup of baby spinach leaves
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or butter.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and crumble into small pieces.
In the same skillet, sauté onions and bell peppers until soft. Add baby spinach and cook until wilted. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and heavy cream. Season with salt and black pepper.
Spread sautéed vegetables evenly in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle crumbled bacon over the vegetables. Pour egg mixture over the top.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses over the egg mixture. Press down slightly with a spatula.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the eggs are set.
Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with dried parsley if desired.
