- 1 to 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 x 13 inch baking dish.
- Cook chopped bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crisp. Remove and drain on a paper-towel lined plate.

- Whisk together eggs, milk and seasonings in a large mixing bowl.
