Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 8 ounces smoked salmon
- 2 whole bagel (plain or everything)
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 3 stalks green onions, sliced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter or non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
Slice the bagels into bite-sized cubes and spread them evenly across the bottom of the greased baking dish.
Cut the smoked salmon into small, bite-sized pieces and sprinkle it evenly over the bagel cubes.
In a medium-sized bowl, beat the eggs, milk, and heavy cream together until well combined.
Add the salt, black pepper, and half of the dill to the egg mixture. Mix thoroughly.
Cut the cream cheese into small cubes and distribute them evenly over the salmon and bagel layers in the casserole dish.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the ingredients in the baking dish, ensuring all the bagel pieces are saturated.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole cool for 5 minutes.
Garnish with the remaining dill and sliced green onions before serving.
Cut into squares and serve warm. Enjoy!
