Preheat the oven to 400° with the bacon laid out on a baking sheet.

Cook the bacon for about 20 minutes, checking at 15 minutes for doneness.

Chop green onions and set aside.

Cut potatoes into thick fry-sized pieces and move to a sheet tray.

Cut red and green bell peppers into strips and then into a uniform dice, adding to the potatoes.

Chop yellow onions into similar-sized pieces as the peppers and add to the tray.

Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.

Mix the vegetables together on the sheet tray, then cover with tin foil and bake at 400° for 30 minutes.

Remove the foil and bake for another 20-30 minutes until cooked through.

Once bacon is done, chop it roughly and transfer to a paper towel-lined bowl to absorb excess grease.

Prepare sausage by mixing 1 pound of ground pork with minced garlic, thyme, sage, fennel seeds, salt, black pepper, and maple syrup by hand.

Set the sausage mixture aside to rest.

In a large bowl, crack 18 eggs and add 1/3 cup of whole milk.
