Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole Bake Recipe

Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole Bake recipe
Best Recipe Box

This recipe is for a 10” oven-safe skillet. A smaller pan will make the casserole too thick, thus requiring a longer baking time. If using a larger pan than 10”, the casserole will be thinner and will bake quicker.You can easily make this vegetarian by leaving out the sausage. Feel free to add any other veggies you like in your egg bakes. See article above recipe for more ideas. For make ahead or overnight tips, read the recipe article above on the website.

Ingredients

1 pound frozen tater tots (, (about 50 tots))
1 Tablespoon oil
1/2 onion (, diced)
1/2 pound uncooked breakfast sausage
1 bell pepper (, seeded & diced)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 cup milk
1-1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (, divided)
2 green onions (, sliced)

Method

1
Preheat oven at 450°F (230°C). Add the tater tots to a 10“ skillet in a single layer (adjust amount of tots to keep it in just a single layer).
2
Bake at 450°F (230°C) for 20-25 minutes or until golden.
3
Gently remove the tots from the skillet and set aside. Decrease oven temperature to 400°F(205°C) (Don’t forget this step!)

Heat the skillet on the stove over medium-high heat. Add 1 Tablespoon of oil then add the onions. Cook for about 1 minute or until softened. Add sausage. Break up sausage and add bell peppers. Then and add garlic powder, onion powder, salt and black pepper. Cook until sausage is browned. Remove skillet from the heat and spread the meat mixture evenly in the pan.
5
In a bowl, beat together the eggs and milk. Pour egg mixture over the sausage in the skillet. Spread evenly.
6
Sprinkle about 1 cup of cheese over the eggs. Layer tater tots on top of the egg mixture.
7
Bake un-covered at 400°F (205°C) for about 20-25 minutes, or until the egg is set and and tater tots are browned on top.
