Notes
- What to do with leftovers
- Cover and store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat until it is piping hot!
- Substitutions/Additions
- If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can use dry mustard powder instead, or leave it out.
- You can use all bacon, all ham, or all sausage. Or a combination of all of them!
- Add in some chopped bell peppers (I like red peppers, but yellow and green are cool too) for some extra flavor.
- If you are into a southwestern flair (and who isn't?) then a can of green chilis or a chopped jalapeno is fantastic in this.
- Freezing instructions
- This recipe can be frozen before baking.
- Cover tightly with plastic wrap and foil. Label and freeze. Thaw overnight and bake as directed in the morning.
