Making Tater Tot Sausage Breakfast Casserole can be a fun and rewarding process. Follow these easy steps to create your dish:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned. Break it into crumbles as it cooks. Drain excess grease if necessary.
3. Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
4. Layer the Ingredients: In a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spread half of the frozen tater tots evenly across the bottom. Layer the cooked sausage on top, followed by half of the shredded cheese.
5. Add Egg Mixture: Pour the egg mixture over the layered ingredients, ensuring it covers the entire dish.
6. Finish Layering: Top with the remaining tater tots, and sprinkle the rest of the shredded cheese evenly over the top.
7. Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the eggs are set and the cheese is golden.
8. Cool Slightly: Once done, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving.
9. Garnish: If desired, sprinkle sliced green onions or parsley on top before serving for added color and freshness.
