For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a layer of sautéed onions and peppers before the cheese. Feel free to substitute the cheddar cheese with your favorite cheese blend. Gruyere, Monterey Jack, or Pepper Jack would all be delicious! This casserole can be assembled the night before. Simply cover and refrigerate, then bake as directed in the morning. You may need to add 10-15 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold. Ensure bacon is crispy for best results. This prevents a soggy texture in the final casserole. To test for doneness, insert a knife into the center of the casserole. If it comes out clean, the casserole is ready.
