Cheesy Bacon and Roasted Potato Egg Casserole

Cheesy Bacon and Roasted Potato Egg Casseroleis easy to put together and a perfect one-dish wonder that you can serve for breakfast, brunch, or dinner.

When you have backyard chickens pecking around outside, you also tend to have a lot of eggs floating around inside. I’m always coming up with new simple egg casserole recipes because we have a lot of eggs to eat! This recipe would be perfect for Father’s Day to help you celebrate those you love in your life, because nothing says ‘love’ like bacon, amIright? It’s one of those classic bacon, potato, egg, and cheese dishes that everyone loves no matter who they are, and you’ll love how simple it is to put together.

Today I’m working with Wright®Brand Naturally Smoked Hickory Bacon and I couldn’t be more excited about it.WrightBrand sells the best thick-cut, hand-trimmed, and naturally smoked bacon on the market. When it comes to bacon, this is the cream of the crop. It cooks up beautifully and has just the right amount of smoky-goodness to it. We love this product and really like to get it for celebrations like Father’s Day.

Tips and Tricks for Making Cheesy Bacon and Roasted Potato Egg Casserole:

  • Roasting the potatoes ahead of time might seem like an extra step but it adds a great flavor to the dish. I’ll often cook up double the amount of potatoes needed and serve the other half on the side like home fries. Delicious.
  • The thick cut bacon is so good in this recipe! When you leave it on top, it crisps up a bit in the oven and is so delicious. The full strips on top slice up great for serving. Since the recipe calls for half a package of bacon, I’ll often cook up the whole package and serve the other half alongside the egg casserole. My family is never sad to have extra bacon on the side.
  • You can use sweet bell peppers that are red, yellow, or orange in place of the green bell pepper if you prefer.
  • The type of cheese that you use is up to you. I like to use a sharp cheddar. It’s also great with a Monterrey jack or pepper jack cheese.
  • This can be a stand alone dish with a side of fruit. If you are celebrating something like Father’s Day though, you might want to add something fun on the side like thebest butter biscuits ever,homemade blueberry muffins, andbiscuits and gravy; all are great choices.

Father’s Day or not, this Cheesy Bacon and Roasted Potato Egg Casserole is going to be a hit for weekend breakfasts, slow brunches, and tasty dinners. It’s one that I make over and over again and I can’t wait for you to try it.

Enjoy from my kitchen to yours, and thank you for supporting the brands that I thoughtfully choose to work with.
