This is a really great recipe. I did add salt and pepper to taste, and I wasn't sure whether I was suppose to mix any of the cheese in with the eggs or just place on top. I placed all of the cheese on top, but next time, I think I am going to mix some in with the egg mixture.

We just ate these-and they were delicious!! I fried my sliced bacon off with the peppers and onion,to cash in on the flavoursome bacon juices.When I scrambled my eggs ,I slightly undercooked them (I like them on the wet side anyway) as I was afraid that they would become a bit rubbery after being baked.I used the sour cream,and I also added a little picante sauce to the eggs,along with the cheese to keep them from drying out and to add flavour.A mixture of cheddar and mexicana cheese was sprinkled on the top.A great tasting,different breakfast,that doesn't require a huge amount of effort.We'll be eating this again!!
