BACON, EGG AND CHEESE BREAKFAST CASSEROLE
Falling somewhere between a frittata and a tortilla española, this breakfast casserole has everything you love about a classic bacon, egg and cheese sandwich: smoky bacon, perfectly set eggs, sharp Cheddar and, if you want (and you definitely do), tangy hot sauce. Thinly sliced potatoes are added for structure and heft, and cooking them will be the most time-consuming part of this whole dish. The great news is that it's as delicious (if not more so) the next day, rewarmed or not. If you like, you can bake the casserole the night before and refrigerate, covered, when cool. To reheat, cover with foil and place in a 325-degree oven until warmed through, 25 to 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Cook bacon in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until crisp and the fat has rendered out, 8 to 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove from skillet, leaving fat behind.
- Add olive oil, potatoes and onion slices to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally until the potatoes are tender and start to brown, and the onions are golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Return bacon to skillet and stir to combine so that everything is distributed evenly.
- In a large bowl, whisk eggs together and season with salt and pepper. Add cheese and whisk to blend. Transfer potato mixture to a 1 1/2- to 2-quart baking dish (any shape will work) and pour egg mixture over. Place in oven and bake until eggs are puffed around the edges and just set in the center, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly before eating. Serve with hot sauce if you like.

BACON BREAKFAST CASSEROLE (GLUTEN FREE)
This is a simple recipe, easy to make. Really nice when you have company over in the morning. Get it ready, pop it in the oven and you have time to socialize while it's cooking! I cut this recipe in half and place it in a pie plate and bake uncovered for 45 minutes for breakfast for a smaller family; it tastes very much like a crustless quiche and my husband loves it! That is how it is shown in the picture.

Tips:
- Utilize a deep 9x13 inch baking dish for even cooking and to accommodate all ingredients comfortably. - For a crispier casserole, use a combination of cubed and shredded hash browns. The cubed potatoes will provide texture, while shredded potatoes will help bind the casserole together. - Ensure the bacon is fully cooked before adding it to the casserole to prevent undercooked bacon pieces. - Avoid over-mixing the casserole batter, as this can result in a dense texture. Gently fold ingredients together until just combined. - For a cheesy crust, sprinkle a layer of shredded cheddar cheese on top of the casserole before baking. - If desired, add additional vegetables to the casserole, such as diced bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms. - To save time, consider using frozen hash browns or pre-cooked bacon. - Leftover casserole can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.Conclusion:
This scrumptious bacon breakfast casserole is a delightful dish that combines the flavors of bacon, eggs, cheese, and hash browns into a hearty and satisfying meal. Perfect for busy mornings or weekend brunches, this casserole is easy to make and can be customized to suit your preferences. With its simple ingredients and versatile nature, this recipe is a must-try for breakfast lovers of all ages. So, gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and embark on a culinary journey that will leave you craving more.
