TATER TOT BREAKFAST CASSEROLE WITH SAUSAGE

Steps:

• First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9×13 baking pan. Either line up the cooked or frozen tater tots in the pan.
• Then using the same pan the sausage was cooked in, sauté the bell peppers, onions over medium heat about 5 minutes. Once the vegetables are soft, add the minced garlic on top of the onions and peppers. Cook until fragrant about 20 seconds. Set to the side.
• To a large bowl add whisk together the eggs, seasonings, salsa, milk. Add sausages and sautéed vegetables and one cup of shredded cheese. Mix once more.
• Pour the egg mixture over the cooked tater tots. Spread the egg mixture evenly over the tater tots. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the eggs set then sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake until the cheese is melted to your preference. Garnish with green onions. Slice and Serve.
• If you choice not to cook the tater tots first then bake for 40 mins or until the eggs are set then sprinkle with cheese and bake until the cheese has melted.

TATER TOT CASSEROLE WITH SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Spread the sausage, bacon, or ham evenly in the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan. Spread cheese over meat. I use 4 cups of cheese, but you can use less if you prefer to reduce the calories.
• In large bowl, beat together milk and eggs. Pour over cheese. (May be refrigerated overnight at this point).
• Top with frozen tater tots.
• Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes. Some ovens may take more or less time. Cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

SAUSAGE AND SPINACH BREAKFAST TATER TOT CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Grease a 9 x 13 inch baking dish.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, fry the ground sausage and onion together until no pink remains. Drain off any excess fat. Add the spinach to the skillet and stir until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and pour into the baking dish.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs, milk, and salt until well combined. Sprinkle with fresh ground black pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and stir to combine. Sprinkle with cheddar cheese. *At this point, you can cover and refrigerate overnight.
• Bake the mixture for 30 minutes then remove and increase the heat to 425 degrees. Line the top of the casserole dish with tater tots, return to the oven, and bake an additional 10-12 minutes, or until tater tots are heated through. I like to turn the broiler on for a few minutes at the very end to make sure the tater tots get nice and crispy. Serve warm.
