asiagobagelbakeThis dish must be prepared the night before you plan to bake it.

8 eggs 
¼ tsp. sea salt 
2 cups milk 
1 Tbsp. fresh tarragon, chopped or ½ tsp. dried tarragon
¼ tsp. ground paprika 
6 oz Monterey jack cheese or medium Cheddar cheese, grated
6 oz Asiago cheese, grated
4 Asiago cheese bagels or plain bagels

Preheat an oven to 350°F (180°C/160°C fan, Gas Mark 4).

In a large mixing bowl, beat together the eggs, salt, milk, tarragon and paprika. Add fresh ground pepper to taste. Mix the grated cheeses together in a bowl. Cut the bagels into small bite-size pieces.

Grease a 2 qt soufflé or casserole dish and starting with the bagel pieces, place them in the dish in alternating layers with the grated cheese. Pour the egg mixture evenly over all, cover the dish and place it in the refrigerator overnight.

Bake uncovered for 1 hour, until the top is golden brown.
