Preparation

Step 1

Cook bacon (or sausage) until cooked through, and/or crisp. (I usually place bacon in the microwave, or on a baking sheet in the oven). Crumble bacon, and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine eggs, egg whites, cottage cheese, shredded cheese, bacon and bell pepper. Whisk until mixture is well combined. (Also, if you are adding any additional veggies, add them to the mixture here!) Cover mixture, and refrigerate overnight.
The next morning, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9×13 sized baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. (Or you could do 6 individual small baking dishes)
Remove egg/cheese mixture from fridge, and stir in flour, baking powder and salt/pepper. Pour batter into baking dish. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top.
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes in oven, until egg puffs up, and becomes slightly golden on top.
