Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs
- 4 strips thick-cut bacon
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup sweet onion, chopped
- 1/2 cup bell pepper, chopped (any color)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet, drain on paper towels, and chop into bite-sized pieces.
- In the same skillet, sauté the chopped onions and bell peppers in the leftover bacon grease until soft, about 5 minutes.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs with salt and pepper until frothy.
- Add the crispy bacon and sautéed veggies to the egg mixture. Gently fold in both cheeses.
- Pour everything back into the skillet or an oven-safe dish and bake for 20-25 minutes until edges are set but center jiggles slightly.
- Let cool for a few minutes before slicing into wedges. Serve warm garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
