Manda’s Breakfast Casserole

Ingredients

• 10 slices bacon
• 5 red potatoes, diced
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 1 orange bell pepper, diced
• 1/2 red onion, diced
• 1 jalapeno pepper, diced
• 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
• 6 eggs
• 3/4 cup skim milk
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika

Directions

Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels; crumble into pieces.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease bottom and sides of a 9×13-inch casserole dish.

Layer potatoes, red bell pepper, orange bell pepper, onion, and jalapeno pepper in the casserole dish. Sprinkle 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese on top. Scatter bacon pieces over the cheese.

Whisk eggs, milk, garlic powder, black pepper, salt, and paprika together in a large bowl. Pour over layers in the casserole dish.

Bake in the preheated oven until set, about 35 minutes. Remove from oven and top with remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese. Continue baking until cheese is melted and golden, about 10 minutes more.
