POOR MAN'S CASSEROLE (POTATO, EGG & BACON CASSEROLE)

Steps:

• Cut half a pound of your favorite bacon cut into 2 inch pieces setting aside about 3 uncooked slices for top. In a frying pan, cook the balance of the bacon pieces until it just starts to crisp.
• Slice the boiled eggs width wise about 1/4 inch thick.
• Using a deep casserole dish, layer 1/3 of the potatoes, 1/3 of the egg slices, and 1/2 of the cooked bacon. Repeat the layer. For the final layer, add the remaining potatoes, eggs and the raw pieces of bacon on top. I like to pour the bacon fat remaining in the frying pan over the whole dish.
• Bake uncovered in the oven for approximately 35 minutes, or until the bacon on the top is crisp. Enjoy.
