Description
These savory Canadian souffles are a comforting and elegant dish perfect for brunch or a light dinner.

This recipe requires just a few common pantry staples but delivers a restaurant-quality result. They rise impressively in the oven and serve up beautifully. Whether you are hosting a weekend breakfast or looking for an impressive vegetarian-friendly option (if you omit the bacon), these souffles are sure to please.Ingredients
