Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large skillet, cook chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Drain the grease, reserving a little for sautéing.
  2. In the same skillet, add diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Incorporate minced garlic for an additional minute.
  3. Add the ground beef, cooking until browned, approximately 6-8 minutes. Season slightly and allow the mixture to cool.
  4. Whisk together the eggs and heavy cream in a mixing bowl until fully blended.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish with reserved bacon grease.
  6. Layer the cooled meat mixture evenly across the bottom of the dish, scatter halved cherry tomatoes and bacon pieces, then sprinkle cheddar and mozzarella cheese on top.
  7. Pour the whisked egg and cream mixture evenly over the entire casserole, ensuring all layers are covered.
  8. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the top is golden brown.
  9. Let the casserole cool for about 5 minutes before slicing and serving warm.
