Cowboy Breakfast Casserole

Ingredients:
– 6 slices of bacon, diced
– 1 onion, chopped
– 1 red bell pepper, diced
– 1 green bell pepper, diced
– 1 (20 oz) package frozen shredded hash browns, thawed
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 8 large eggs
– 1 cup milk
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh chopped parsley, for garnish

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the diced bacon until crispy. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
3. In the same skillet with the bacon drippings, add the chopped onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the thawed hash browns, cooked bacon, sautéed vegetables, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix everything together and spread the mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
5. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined. Pour the egg mixture over the hash brown mixture in the baking dish.
6. Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.
7. Once cooked, remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing into squares.
8. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley for a pop of color and added freshness.
9. Serve the Cowboy Breakfast Casserole warm and enjoy the mouthwatering flavors of this comforting dish!
