A delicious and hearty breakfast casserole loaded with crispy bacon, savory sausage, eggs, and gooey cheeses, all topped with crispy Tater Tots.
Ingredients:
10 oz sausage crumbles
1 pound bacon
1 32 oz package Tater Tots
12 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded and divided
Green onions, chopped (for garnish)
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
In a skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from skillet, drain on paper towels, and crumble into pieces.
Arrange Tater Tots in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Stir in sausage crumbles and half of the crumbled bacon.
Mix in 1 cup of Monterey Jack cheese and 1 cup of cheddar cheese until well combined. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the Tater Tots in the baking dish.
Sprinkle the remaining Tater Tots over the top of the casserole.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, until the eggs are set and the Tater Tots are golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese over the top. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, until the cheese is melted.
Let the casserole stand for 10 minutes before cutting. Garnish with remaining bacon crumbles and chopped green onions, if desired. Serve warm.
