Ingredients

  • 12 eggs
  • 6 strips bacon
  • 2 bell peppers color is your choice
  • 1 yellow onion
  • 4 chicken apple sausages
  • 2 zucchinis
  • 15-20 cherry tomatoes
  • 2 teaspoons white pepper
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • sea salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Cook your bacon. I find throwing it in the oven on a cold cookie sheet (line it with parchment paper or aluminum foil first) at about 400°F for 15-20 minutes does the trick. SAVE THE RENDERED FAT!
  • Roughly cut up your 4 chicken sausages and set them aside in a small bowl.
  • Chop up the rest of your vegetables, and throw everything into a large bowl.
  • Take all that rendered fat deliciousness and coat the bottom and sides of a large glass Pyrex dish.
  • Layer the bottom of the dish with your sausage pieces. Make sure you get a solid foundation going.
  • Whisk your 12 eggs, and pour the mixture into your large bowl filled with vegetables. Now, transfer that egg and veggie mixture into your casserole dish.
  • Now that the bacon has cooled off, dice up the strips, and place them over the top of the dish.
  • Sprinkle your spices onto the casserole, and it's time for the oven.
  • Lower the temperature to 350°F and bake for 25-35 minutes, or until the egg seems to have cooked through and appear golden brown around the edges.

Notes

Feel free to use your favorite vegetables to make this casserole truly yours!
