Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 32 ounces frozen tater tots
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 8 eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup green onions, chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter or non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with either the butter or cooking spray.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it into small pieces, until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess grease, then set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Layer the frozen tater tots evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the cooked sausage evenly over the tater tots.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage and tater tots, ensuring it soaks through the layers.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly across the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before sprinkling with chopped green onions for garnish.
Slice into portions and serve warm. Enjoy your Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole!
