Scale
- 6 large croissants, cut into cubes
- 8 large eggs
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup cooked bacon, chopped

- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and Dijon mustard until well combined.
- Stir in shredded cheddar cheese, cooked bacon, green onions, and chopped parsley.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the croissants in the baking dish.
