Ingredients
- 1/2 pound bacon
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 1/4 cup minced onion
- 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
- 8 large eggs
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/4 cup finely shredded Asiago cheese
Instructions
1
Firstly, preheat your oven to a high temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (or 175 degrees Celsius for those using metric measurements). Next, take some cooking spray and lightly cover a 9x13-inch baking dish to prevent any food residue from sticking to it.
2
Now, cook some bacon in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat level, stirring it occasionally until the entire piece is evenly browned. This should take around 10 minutes. Remove the cooked bacon from the pan and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess grease. Chop the cooked bacon into smaller pieces and set it aside for later use.
3
In the same pan you used to cook the bacon, sauté sliced bell peppers and onions over a medium-high heat level until they become tender. This should take anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes, depending on your desired level of doneness.
4
Spread a layer of fresh spinach leaves across the bottom of the prepared baking dish, followed by your cooked bacon and sautéed bell pepper mixture.
5
In a separate bowl, whisk together some eggs using a fork until they become well-mixed. Add milk, garlic salt, and pepper to the eggs and continue whisking until everything is fully incorporated.
6
Pour the egg mixture over the bacon mixture in the baking dish, followed by a sprinkle of shredded Monterey Jack cheese and Asiago cheese.
7
Finally, place your baking dish in the preheated oven and bake until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, taking anywhere from 35 to 45 minutes.
