Ingredients

• 3 medium Potatoes
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 1 medium Green bell pepper
• 4 large Eggs
• 4 slices Bacon
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Wash and peel the potatoes. Thinly slice them into 1/8-inch rounds and set aside.

Step 2

Dice the red and green bell peppers into small pieces.

Step 3

Place the bacon slices on a microwave-safe plate lined with paper towels. Cover with another paper towel and microwave on high for 4-5 minutes or until crispy. Let cool and crumble into small pieces.

Step 4

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter (about 30 seconds on high). Stir in the flour to form a smooth paste. Gradually whisk in the milk, then add the salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder.

Step 5

Microwave the milk mixture in 30-second intervals, whisking well each time, until thickened (about 2-3 minutes). Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and smooth.

Step 6

Lightly grease a large, microwave-safe casserole dish with olive oil. Layer half of the potato slices in the dish, followed by half of the diced peppers, crumbled bacon, and cheese sauce. Repeat the layers with the remaining potatoes, peppers, bacon, and cheese sauce.

Step 7

Cover the dish with a microwave-safe lid or plastic wrap (vented) and microwave on high for 15-18 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Check for doneness by piercing with a fork.

Step 8

Meanwhile, crack the eggs into a separate microwave-safe dish and whisk lightly with a pinch of salt and pepper. Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, stirring halfway, until softly scrambled.

Step 9

When the scalloped potato dish is done, remove it from the microwave and carefully stir in the scrambled eggs.

Step 10

Let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional cheese or chopped parsley if desired.
