This baked egg casserole can be prepared the night before (refrigerated overnight) or tossed together in the morning. You can add-in leftover veggies that you have sitting around in your refrigerator and use your favorite type of cheese. It will take approximately 50-60 minutes to bake, so plan ahead accordingly. I used a glass 3-quart baking dish.
Baked Egg Casserole Recipe
6 large eggs
6 slices bread, cubed
2 cups milk
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded or cubed
6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
3 tbsp. onion, finely chopped
1/8 cup green bell pepper, finely chopped
6 cherry tomatoes, sliced
1 tbsp. dried parsley
salt and ground black pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl combine together all of the above ingredients using a large spoon. Pour into your prepared casserole dish. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 50-60 minutes or until done. The center will spring back when lightly touched and the edges with be lightly golden brown. Remove from oven and let sit for an additional 3-4 minutes before serving. Refrigerate all leftovers in an airtight container.

I like that this recipe is just combined and put in a casserole dish. The recipe has everything I would love to eat inside it.
I like a good egg dish and this is certainly that. I like what Tamra said about caramelizing some onions to put in it.
I am such a fan of recipes like this that can be prepared ahead of time and that can be individualized for taste. It looks pretty too with the red and green colors.
I like this recie. Hubby is Catholic so it would work well for Fridays. I think he would love this alongside hashbrowns or even hashbrowns in it (precooked) I like it too because it can be prepared in advance..
This does look good. I really like onion, so I might chop up more onion and caramelize it, then add it. And, you’re right, you could add pretty much anything that you have.
That looks so good. I would like to have that for supper also. It looks like a good and sturdy meal for the family.
Stop tempting me with good food. This looks so delicious! I must try this recipe now!
What a great ideal! I have been looking for something new to make and this sounds easy and good
