Bacon and Egg Lasagne
"Ever want lasagne for breakfast? How about bacon, egg, and cheese with your lasagne? I didn't realize the recipe would be as labor intensive before I started it, but it was worth it in the end. Just a fair warning, when this says it has 12 servings just remember you'll keep going back for more. DELICIOUS! DO NOT COOK THIS IF YOU ARE HUNGRY! Recipe from The Pillsbury Cookbook."

This is a VERY decadent and filling lasagne rendition, but we enjoyed it very much. It's a unique combination and I don't believe I've ever used hard-boiled eggs in this manner before, but it was tasty. I used a combination of shredded swiss and cheddar. Depending upon the saltiness of your cheese and bacon, you may need to add additional salt. I erred on the side of less salt and adjusted to taste once it was served. Like the poster stated, this is not a recipe for beginner cooks (bechamel sauces can be tricky) but it's worth the effort and prep time.

I love to try new recipes, and this is a wonderful site to find new additions. I rarely make the same thing twice because it's so much fun to try something different. My life long dream is to travel the world and eat my way around it.
