Breakfast Egg Casserole

A breakfast egg casserole recipe from a woman in my Bible study class that I'm planning to try.

Ingredients:
  • ½ lb sliced bacon
  • ½ cup chopped onion
  • ½ cup chopped green or red pepper
  • 12 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 (16 ounce) package frozen hash brown potatoes, thawed
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • ¼ tsp dill weed (optional)

Instructions:
  • In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp.  Remove to paper towels; drain, reserving 2 tablespoons of drippings.  Crumble bacon and set aside.  In same skillet, saute onion and green pepper in drippings until tender; remove with a slotted spoon.   
  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and milk.  Stir in hash browns, cheese, salt, pepper, dill, onion mixture and reserved bacon. 
  • Transfer to a greased 13-in x 9-in x 2-in baking dish.  Bake uncovered, at 350 °F for 35-45 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
