5. Sprinkle 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese over the vegetables and potatoes.
6. In a bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
7. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the cheese and vegetables.
8. Crumble the reserved cooked bacon over the top.
9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the casserole is set and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
10. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
