Breakfast Casserole, Version 2

I decided to experiment with the breakfast casserole I made a couple of weeks ago. It turned out pretty good.

  • 1.25 lbs ground pork
  • 0.25 lbs ground beef
  • 6 pieces thick bacon, cooked (I used uncured bacon from Costco)
  • 4 oz cream cheese, cut into small pieces (about 20)
  • 4 oz cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 12 hard boiled eggs, sliced or chopped
  • spices to taste (I used Pampered Chef Rosemary and Italian mixes, some thyme, and oregano)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  1. Brown the ground pork and beef. Add the spices, salt, and pepper to taste
  2. Put the cooked ground meat mixture into a 9x12 pan.
  3. Dot the meat with the cream cheese pieces.
  4. Layer the eggs, bacon, and cheddar cheese (in that order) in the pan.
  5. Cook, covered with aluminum foil, at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Remove the cover and cook an additional 10 minutes.
Enjoy! I don't have the nutritional stats yet, but it should be close to the original, probably lower-carb since I used less dairy this time. The nutritional info will vary based on the bacon used, as well as the spices.

UPDATE: Here's the nutrition info, based on the above recipe making 8 servings:
  • 539 calories
  • 42 g fat
  • 2g carbs (trace fiber)
  • 35g protein
