Ingredients

Instructions
1. Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F.
2. Prepare Biscuit Dough: Cut each biscuit into quarters and arrange them evenly in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
3. Mix Eggs & Milk: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
4. Add Ingredients: Sprinkle the crumbled bacon, diced bell peppers, onions, and shredded cheddar cheese over the biscuit pieces.
5. Pour Egg Mixture: Gently pour the egg mixture over the biscuit and bacon layers, ensuring that everything is evenly coated.
6. Bake Casserole: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the egg is set and the top is golden brown.
7. Garnish & Serve: Allow the casserole to cool slightly before garnishing with chopped parsley. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
To avoid soggy biscuit layers, ensure the biscuit pieces are spread out evenly and not overcrowded. Pre-baking the biscuit pieces for a few minutes can also help.
Feel free to swap the bacon for sausage or go vegetarian with mushrooms or spinach. Different cheeses like pepper jack or gouda can bring exciting flavors.
You can prepare this casserole the night before! Just assemble it without baking, cover it tightly, and refrigerate. In the morning, pop it in the oven for a delicious breakfast ready in no time.
