Notes

  • Need to save some time? Use store bought bacon crumbles instead of cooking your own.
  • Want a crispy topping? Sprinkle panko crumbs lightly over the top before baking.
  • Try drizzling a little blue cheese dressing over the top for an extra cheesy flavor.
  • Don't have bacon on hand? This recipe tastes amazing with sausage too!
