Recipe View 5 mins Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving warm. Garnish with extra fresh parsley, if desired.

For a vegetarian option, substitute the bacon with sautéed mushrooms or bell peppers.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as Gruyere, Monterey Jack, or Pepper Jack, to customize the flavor.
If you prefer a softer texture, use day-old bagels. For a crispier texture, use fresh bagels.
To prevent the top from browning too quickly, you can loosely cover the dish with foil during the last 10-15 minutes of baking.
This bake can be easily doubled to feed a larger crowd. Simply use a larger baking dish and increase the ingredients accordingly.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave or oven.
