Ingredients
Scale
- 6 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 4 cups (600 g) diced potatoes (about 4 medium potatoes)
- 8 large eggs
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk or cream
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 cup (50 g) shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup (50 g) shredded mozzarella cheese (optional)
- 1/4 cup (30 g) chopped green onions (for garnish)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Cook the Potatoes:
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and golden.
- Transfer the potatoes to the prepared baking dish.
- Add Bacon and Cheese: Spread the crumbled bacon over the potatoes. Sprinkle with cheddar and mozzarella cheeses.
- Prepare the Egg Mixture:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the potato, bacon, and cheese layers.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with green onions before serving.
Notes
- For a vegetarian version, omit the bacon and add sautéed vegetables like mushrooms, bell peppers, or spinach.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
- Use frozen hash browns as a shortcut instead of diced potatoes.
