Ingredients
- 16 ounces cheese shredded (I used half cheddar and half pepper jack)*
- 1 tablespoon flour

Instructions
- Spray a 9x13 inch casserole dish with nonstick spray or grease with butter.

- Sprinkle bacon evenly over the cheese.
- Beat the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, seasoned salt, dry mustard, onion, garlic, and paprika.

- Let stand for 5 minutes before cutting and serving.

Notes
- *Most shredded cheese would be good here. Cheddar, Mexican blend, Monterey Jack, whatever you want. If you use Pepper Jack like I did it will make it spicier obviously.
- **You can use 1 pound of cooked ham, or cooked sausage. This time I used half bacon and half kielbasa. I baked the bacon in the oven, then baked the sliced kielbasa until it was browned. (Probably like 10 minutes)
- All of the spices in this recipe are according to taste. You can just add salt and pepper if you want.
