Ingredients

Egg Base:

8 large eggs
¼ cup milk optional, for fluffier eggs
Salt and pepper to taste

Add-Ins & Toppings:

½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
¼ cup finely diced green onion
½ cup cooked bacon sausage, or ham (optional)
Non-stick spray or olive oil for greasing

Method

Preheat & Prep: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking dish with non-stick spray or olive oil.
Whisk the Eggs: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy.
Add the Flavor: Stir in shredded cheddar cheese, diced green onion, and your choice of cooked bacon, sausage, or ham.
Bake to Perfection: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and slightly golden on top.
Slice & Serve: Let cool slightly before slicing into squares. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

For extra creaminess, use heavy cream instead of milk.
You can substitute cheddar with mozzarella, Swiss, or feta for a different flavor.
Add sautéed mushrooms, bell peppers, or spinach for a veggie-packed version.
Leftovers store well in the fridge for up to 4 days and can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
