**Breakfast Lasagna**
**Ingredients:**
– 12 lasagna noodles
– 8 slices of bacon, chopped
– 1 small onion, diced
– 1 red bell pepper, diced
– 8 eggs
– 1 cup milk
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
– 1 cup chopped spinach
– 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
– 1/4 cup chopped chives
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
3. In the same skillet with the bacon fat, sauté the diced onion and red bell pepper until softened, about 5 minutes.
4. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
5. In a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, start assembling the breakfast lasagna. Begin with a layer of lasagna noodles at the bottom of the dish.
6. Top the noodles with half of the cooked bacon, sautéed onion and bell pepper mixture, and a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.
7. Pour half of the egg mixture over the cheese layer. Repeat the layers with the remaining noodles, bacon, veggies, and cheese. Finish with the remaining egg mixture, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.
8. Top the lasagna with chopped spinach, halved cherry tomatoes, and a final sprinkle of cheddar cheese.
9. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
10. Once cooked, remove the Breakfast Lasagna from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before garnishing with chopped chives.
Serve slices of this delicious Breakfast Lasagna with a fresh fruit salad or a side of toast for a complete and satisfying morning meal.
