Preparation

Step 1

Cook the bacon in a very large skillet over medium heat until very crispy; remove and drain on paper towels. Drain all but 2 tbsp grease from skillet. Add leeks, and onion; cook over medium heat for 10 minutes or until very soft. Stir in garlic and tomato and cook for a few minutes more.

Beat eggs until light and fluffy in a large bowl. Beat in ricotta, flour and baking powder; then stir in cheese and vegetables. Pour mixture into two lightly buttered 8 or 9 inch baking dishes or one 13 X 9 baking dish, then cover and refrigerate overnight.

When ready to bake, remove dish from refrigerator and uncover; preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until eggs are puffed, golden brown and set in the center.
