Fry bacon pieces in a large skillet until done but not overly crispy. Drain on a paper towel, pour grease from skillet. Add mushrooms to skillet and cook until done. Mix eggs, half-and-half, salt, and pepper. Arrange pita chips in an 8 x 11-inch baking dish. Slightly press to flatten. Tear pieces of cream cheese and evenly distribute over the top of chips. Distribute mushrooms and bacon over the top of this, followed by the cheddar cheese. Pour egg mixture evenly over all ingredients. Place into the fridge for several hours of overnight, then bake at 325 degrees for 20 minutes or until eggs are set. Cut into squares and serve immediately.
