Step 1

Cook the bacon on medium heat for about 2 minutes per side, or until crispy-ish.  You want it slightly crisp but not dry.

Step 2

Remove the bacon from the pan and slice into small slices.  I used kitchen scissors for this.

Step 3

Keep about half of the bacon fat in the pan for flavor. In the same pan, on low-medium heat, cook the ground sausage until no longer pink.  This will take about 4 minutes.  You will need a wooden spoon to stir and break the meat apart while cooking.

Step 4

Add the ground sausage to a 9 x 13 inch baking dish.

Step 5

Top that will the sliced bacon pieces.

Step 6

Add the blend of cheeses to the dish.

Step 7

In a large bowl, combine the eggs, heavy cream, cottage cheese, salt, pepper, onion powder and cayenne pepper.  Using an electric mixer, combine until smooth.

Step 8

Pour the egg mixture into the baking dish.

Step 9

Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 35 minutes, or until the center looks set and until slightly golden on top.
