For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of garlic powder or onion powder to the bacon and onion mixture while cooking. Feel free to customize the cheese blend to your liking. Monterey Jack, Gruyere, or pepper jack would all be delicious additions. If you're not a fan of green bell peppers, you can substitute them with red bell peppers or even a diced jalapeño for a bit of heat. This casserole can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator overnight. Just add a few extra minutes to the baking time if baking from cold. Serve with a side of fresh fruit, toast, or a dollop of sour cream or salsa for a complete and satisfying meal.

Jul 16, 2024I've made this casserole several times now, and it's always a hit. I like to add a layer of sausage for extra protein.
