Ingredients
  

  • 8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 small onion, finely diced
  • 1 green bell pepper, seeded and finely diced
  • 1 (30 oz) bag frozen shredded hash browns, thawed and patted dry
  • 12 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided

Method
 

  1. Cook bacon until crisp, sauté onion and bell pepper in 2 tbsp drippings until softened.
  2. Whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Layer hash browns in a greased 9x13-inch dish, top with bacon, veggies, and 1½ cups cheese; pour egg mixture over.
  4. Bake at 350°F for 45 to 55 minutes, until center is set and top is golden.
  5. Rest 5 minutes, sprinkle remaining cheese, slice, and serve.

Notes

If you make this ahead and refrigerate overnight, add 5 to 10 minutes to the bake time. Let the dish sit at room temperature while the oven preheats to reduce the chill.
