Instructions

1. Preheat the oven:
   Set your oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease a baking dish.

   In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp and the sausage until browned. Remove from heat and set aside.

   In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and paprika. Stir in the cooked bacon, sausage, onion, bell pepper, and half of the shredded cheese.

4. Assemble the bake:
   Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.

5. Bake:
   Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is golden and bubbly.

6. Serve and enjoy:
   Allow the bake to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley for a burst of color and flavor. Serve warm.
