Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 10 slices bacon chopped
  • 12 ounces bulk pork sausage
  • 1.25 lbs 20 oz cooked ham steak, cut into ½-inch cubes
  • 15 large eggs
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper or to taste
  • 2 cups shredded part-skim Mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup shredded Provolone cheese
  • ⅔ cup thinly sliced green onions scallions
  • Cooking spray or butter for greasing the dish

Method
 

  1. Preheat and Prepare Dish: Adjust your oven rack to the middle position and preheat to 350°F (175°C). Thoroughly grease a 10x15 inch baking dish or a similar large (approx. 3-quart) casserole dish.
  2. Cook Bacon: Place the chopped bacon into a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the bacon reaches your desired crispness. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked bacon to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Reserve about 1 tablespoon of bacon fat in the skillet, discarding the rest.
  3. Brown Sausage: Add the bulk pork sausage to the skillet with the reserved bacon fat. Increase heat slightly to medium-high and cook, breaking the sausage into crumbles, until it is fully browned. Drain any excess fat very well, then add the cooked sausage to the baking dish over the bacon.
  4. Add Ham: Scatter the cubed ham evenly over the sausage and bacon layers.
  5. Layer Cheeses: In a small bowl, combine the shredded Mozzarella and Provolone cheeses. Sprinkle the cheese mixture uniformly over the meats in the dish.
  6. Mix Egg Base: In a large bowl, vigorously whisk the eggs until smooth and well combined. Whisk in the salt, garlic powder, and black pepper.
  7. Combine and Pour: Stir the sliced green onions into the egg mixture. Pour the entire egg mixture evenly over the contents of the baking dish, ensuring it covers all ingredients.
  8. Bake Casserole: Carefully place the dish into the preheated oven. Bake for 55 to 65 minutes. The casserole is done when the center is set (a knife inserted near the middle comes out clean) and the top is lightly golden brown.
  9. Rest Before Serving: Remove the casserole from the oven and let it stand for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the casserole to set firmly. Cut into 10 equal portions and serve warm.
