- In a large electric skillet or a saute pan over medium-high heat, spray with non-stick cooking spray and place bread slices in pan. Allow bread to lightly brown and turn over, browning on other side.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk eggs and milk. Pour egg mixture over bread. Use a spatula to press the bread down and allow bread to be covered and soaked by the egg mixture.
- Sprinkle with lentils, broccoli, cheese, and bacon bits.
- Cover and allow to bake until eggs are set and no longer liquid, approximately 15-20 minutes.
- Serve immediately or allow to cool and refrigerate.
