BACON AND TOMATO BAGEL CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels and crumble when cool enough to handle.
• While bacon is frying, tear bagels into bite-sized pieces and place in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan.
• Beat eggs, half-and-half, Swiss cheese, tomato, basil, and salt together in a medium bowl until well combined.
• Sprinkle crumbled bacon over bagel pieces, then pour egg mixture over top, making sure liquid is evenly distributed. Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Remove casserole from the refrigerator and bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes.

BACON AND BAGELS (LOW FAT)

Steps:

• Add a bit of oil in a frying pan at medium high heat. Fry the Turkey Bacon to desired crispiness, (I like it a bit crispier for this recipe) you can also cook the bacon in the Microwave is you wanted to. While cooking the bacon, slice and open the bagels and toast in toaster or Toaster Oven. When Bacon is done to desired crispiness, drain off excess grease. Cut bacon strips in half (width wise). Spread Cream cheese, on one or both halves (i do it on both). Add 1 slice of tomato and both bacon halves and make in to sandwiches and they are ready to serve.
