Cheesy Bacon and Egg Breakfast Bombs

Nothing says 'holiday' like starting the day with a special breakfast.
Whether it is Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years or a Father's Day I love starting the day off with a scrumptious homemade hot breakfast.

As I have shared many times, I am not much of a morning person. Which kind of throws a wrench in those morning breakfast plans.
I would love to get up at 5 AM and start making breakfast from scratch. But let's be honest, that's not happening!
Most days my crew will usually eat cereal, and I will grab a protein shake.
The only hot breakfast my family and friends are going to be eating is one that I prepared the night before, and I can toss in the oven in the morning.
That is one of the many reasons I absolutely love love love make ahead breakfasts!
They are awesome for less stress and more time to spend with your family and friends.
A make ahead breakfast with ooey gooey cheese and Cherrywood Smoked Sliced Bacon; it doesn't get much better than that!

INGREDIENTS

• 1 pound Jones Dairy Farm Cherrywood Smoked Sliced Bacon
• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons whole milk
• 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
• pinch black pepper
• 16 frozen dinner yeast roll dough balls
• flour (to dust counter)
• 8 ounces shredded mild cheddar cheese
• 1 medium jalapeno, diced
• 1/4 cup roasted red peppers, diced
• Garlic Herb Butter
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Prepare bacon. I love my bacon in the oven. Bake at 400ºF on a baking sheet. Cook 15-25 minutes or until desired crispness is reached. Remove from oven. Allow to cool and chop into bite size pieces.
2. Meanwhile: Prepare the eggs. In a medium bowl combine eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk until completely combined. Spray a small skillet with non-stick cooking spray. Heat skillet over medium heat. Add the egg mixture and stir occasionally until the eggs are scrambled, and no liquid is left in the pan, about 3-4 minutes. Do not cook until they are completely dry, or they will be very dry in the breakfast bomb. Set aside to cool.
3. Place dinner rolls on a microwave safe plate and microwave on defrost for about 3-4 minutes (or until dough is no longer frozen, but not cooked). Butter a 9" pie plate or a 9"x9" baking pan and set aside.
