There you go, your eggs casserole with bacon are already ready :-)

I serve it hot with a side salad.

Bonus tip

As I like to vary the flavors, I sometimes cook my eggs with thin strips of salmon.

I flavor everything with a few sprigs of dill. A dish just as tasty and simple to prepare.

A cheap cost

- 4 slices of smoked bacon:40 g at €13.67 per kilo, i.e. €0.55

- 4 eggs:€1

- 6 cl of fresh cream:€3 per liter or €0.18

- 30 g of grated Gruyère cheese:€6.90 per kilo, i.e. €0.21

That is 1 casserole coming back to me at €0.48 or 4 casseroles at €1.92.
