Why this works
High in protein and energy, but also high in saturated fat and sodium due to the bacon and cheese.
High-quality protein. Eggs, bacon and cheese provide a substantial amount of protein, supporting muscle maintenance and satiety.
Calcium and B12. Cheese and milk contribute calcium for bone health, while eggs and bacon provide vitamin B12.
Salt and saturated fat. Bacon and cheddar make this dish relatively high in sodium and saturated fat, so it is best eaten occasionally.
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (Fan 180°C, 392°F, Gas Mark 6).
- Fry the bacon until just starting to crisp, then spoon into a baking dish.
- Whisk the eggs with the milk and stir in the grated cheese.
- Pour the egg mixture over the bacon, then scatter the breadcrumbs and cheddar cheese over the top.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until puffed and golden.
- Rest for 5 minutes before cutting into portions.
