Ingredients

1 pound sliced bacon, diced
1 medium sweet onion, chopped
9 large eggs, lightly beaten
4 cups frozen shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1.5 cups small curd cottage cheese
1.25 cups shredded Swiss cheese

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. Get all ingredients ready.
Cook bacon and onion in a large skillet over medium-high heat until bacon is browned and crispy, about 10 minutes. Drain off any excess grease.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked bacon and onion with eggs, hash browns, Cheddar cheese, cottage cheese, and Swiss cheese. Mix well to ensure everything is evenly distributed.
Pour the egg and cheese mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Let the casserole rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
