Ingredients
- ½ cup onion diced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound breakfast sausage You can use loose meat or chop up links.
- 32 ounces tater tots frozen, divided
- 2 cups Colby jack cheese shredded, divided
- 8 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- green onions optional garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13 glass pan with cooking spray, then set to the side.
- Add oil to a large skillet on medium heat and allow it to warm. Add diced onion. and saute until the onion is softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Place sausage to the pan and break it up with a spatula into small pieces as it cooks. Cook until sausage is no longer pink, about 10-12 minutes, then drain off any extra grease and set to the side.
- In a large bowl mix together half of the tater tots, 1 ½ cups cheese and all of the sausage. (see notes) Pour the mixture into the prepared 9x13 pan.
- In a medium bowl add eggs and scramble well with a whisk. Add milk, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the eggs and mix until combined. Pour the egg mixture over the tater tot mixture in the pan..
- Add the remaining tater tots to the top of the breakfast casserole in a single layer. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the eggs are cooked.
- Top the casserole with the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheese. Place the casserole back in the oven uncovered until the cheese is melted for about 5-10 minutes, then enjoy!
Notes
- I like to set about 1/4- 1/2 cup of sausage aside after cooking it to sprinkle on top of the casserole when I add the cheese. While you can skip this step if you prefer, it makes the casserole look even more delicious!
