Ingredients
- 8 ounces baby bella mushrooms diced
- 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup yellow onion finely diced
- 1 large bell pepper diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ½ teaspoon fennel seeds
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ¼ teaspoon rubbed sage
- ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 cups kale shredded, tightly packed
- ¼ cup fresh parsley finely chopped
- 12 eggs
- 1 ⅓ cups half and half
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese additional as desired
- ½ teaspoon fine sea salt in eggs
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 45 tater tots
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F and grease a 9x13 pan with cooking spray or softened butter.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced mushrooms to the pan in an even layer. Cook for 5-6 minutes and allow the water to release from the mushrooms, stirring occasionally as they lift from the pan.
- Add the butter to melt, then stir in the yellow onion, bell pepper, garlic, and spices, as well as a good pinch of salt. Cook for 4-5 minutes until tender.
- Stir the shredded kale into the vegetable mixture and cook fro 1-2 minutes until wilted, then, stir in parsley.
- Spread the veggies in an even layer across the baking pan to cool slightly. Meanwhile, whisk together eggs, half and half, cheese, salt and pepper.
- Pour the egg mixture into the veggies, stirring to combine as needed. If desired, sprinkle the top with extra shredded cheese, then top with the tater tots.
- Bake uncovered for 45-50 minutes or until tater tots are golden and the center of the casserole is set. The internal temperature should be at least 160°F. Let rest for 10-15 minutes, then slice and serve.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. Reheat slices in the microwave for 1 - 1 1/2 minutes until heated through to 165°F.

Notes
- Make Ahead Unbaked: store uncovered in the fridge without the tater tots. Remove from the fridge the next day while the oven preheats, add the tater tots, and bake according to the directions. Please see the post for more details as needed.
- To Freeze: wrap slices well in plastic wrap, and again in foil. Place in the freezer. When ready to enjoy, unwrap and place on a plate. Use the defrost setting on your microwave until the slice is thawed, then I like to heat on full power for about 30 seconds until fully heated through to at least 165°F. Time will vary depending on the size of your slice.
