BACON AND EGGS CASSEROLE
Because it's fast to fix and such a great hit with family and friends, this egg casserole with bacon is a favorite of mine to make for brunches. Served with a fruit salad, hot muffins and croissants, it's excellent for an after-church meal. -Deanna Durward-Orr, Windsor, Ontario

BAKED EGGS IN BACON WRAPS
Bacon wrapped in each muffin cup around the sides,with an egg in each cup. When there were 8 to 10 around the kitchen table in the morning, it was an easy breakfast to prepare and bake. Serve with toast and fruit. I used to make 18 to 24 servings so that each person could have two if desired. I worked a full time job and made recipes that were quick, easy, good tasting and that allowed all of us to get to school and work on time. Now I would use turkey bacon. When I first created this recipe, turkey bacon was not available.

CRISPY OVEN BACON AND EGGS
Bacon browns and crisps evenly in the oven without the hassle of flipping slices on the stovetop, while eggs can oven-fry alongside for perfect sunny-side-up runny yolks and tender whites. The oven's encompassing heat helps egg whites set on top before the yolks start to stiffen. Make sure to have the eggs sit at room temperature before cracking them into the hot pan: It ensures they'll cook quickly and evenly.

Steps:
- Take the eggs out of the refrigerator. Place a rack in the center of the oven, and heat the oven to 450 degrees.
- Arrange the bacon on a rimmed baking sheet in a single layer, spacing evenly. Roast in the center of the oven until the fat renders and the bacon curls, about 8 minutes. Very thin slices will cook more quickly; thick-cut ones will take longer.
- Take the pan out of the oven and quickly flip the bacon and move to one side of the pan. Crack the eggs onto the other side, then immediately return the pan to the oven and roast until the whites are just set, the yolks are still runny and the bacon is brown and crisp, 2 to 5 minutes longer. If you prefer medium or hard egg yolks or extra-crisp bacon, cook a few minutes more, but take out the bacon before it burns.
- Using a spatula, cut the eggs apart. Slide them off the pan and onto plates right away to stop the yolks from solidifying. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Drain the bacon on paper towels, then add to the plate along with toast. Serve immediately.

Tips:

- Use a large bowl to mix the ingredients. This makes it easier to combine the ingredients and prevents spilling.
- Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray. This prevents the casserole from sticking to the dish.
- Layer the ingredients in the baking dish in the following order: hash browns, cooked bacon, cheese, eggs, and milk. This order ensures that the casserole is cooked evenly.
- Bake the casserole for 30-35 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Check the casserole halfway through baking and cover it with foil if it is browning too quickly.
- Let the casserole cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the casserole to set and makes it easier to cut and serve.
