1 cup Original Bisquick™ mix
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
2 cups shredded extra sharp Cheddar cheese (8 oz)
1/2 cup Progresso™ reduced-sodium chicken broth (from 32-oz carton) or water
4 slices applewood-smoked thick-sliced bacon, cut into bite-size pieces
1/2 lb bulk pork sausage
8 eggs
1/4 cup half-and-half
1/2 teaspoon freeze-dried chopped chives
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon butter
1/3 cup crumbled peppercorn feta cheese

Remove from heat; stir in sausage and feta cheese. Spread mixture evenly over crust. Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup Cheddar cheese and the bacon.
  • Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until heated through and cheese is melted. Run metal spatula or table knife along side of torte to loosen from pan; remove side of pan. Cut into wedges; serve immediately.

I followed the recipe exactly but my torte didn't turn out as good as the pictures. It was still tasty, but it wasn't as fluffy as I expected.

This torte was a little too heavy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less cheese or maybe even without the bacon.

I've made this torte several times now and it's always a winner. It's perfect for a weekend brunch or a holiday breakfast. I love that I can make it ahead of time and just pop it in the oven when I'm ready to serve it.

This breakfast torte was a huge hit with my family! It was easy to make and so delicious. The sausage, bacon, and cheese were all cooked perfectly, and the eggs were fluffy and light. I will definitely be making this again!
