  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs with milk or cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Fill each hollowed bread boat with the sautéed turkey bacon and vegetables, then pour the egg mixture over the filling. Sprinkle cheese on top.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the eggs are set and the tops are golden.
  6. Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
