2.In a large skillet, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

3.Add the diced pancetta to the skillet and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the cooked sausage slices and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

7.Top the dish with grated cheese and sliced halloumi, distributing them evenly over the top.

8.Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set to your liking and the cheese is bubbly and golden.
