Tater Tot Casserole

Happy New Year! We had a wonderful holiday season and hope you did too. There is nothing better that a house full of family on Christmas morning with everyone still in their pj’s and the smell of breakfast cooking in the kitchen.

We decided to give this popular Pinterest recipe a try; Tater Tot Casserole, and we’re so glad we did. It was easy to make and everyone loved it! Just put all of the ingredients in a casserole dish and bake.

Tater Tot Casserole Recipe

Aka “Hangover Casserole”

Ingredients:

  • 1 - 16 oz. bag of frozen Ore-Ida Tater Tots

  • 1 pound of cooked breakfast sausage, ham or bacon.

  • 10 eggs

  • 2 cups of shredded cheese

  • 1 cup of milk or half and half

  • 1 pepper, chopped

  • Salt and pepper

Directions:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

  • Grease a 9 x 13 inch baking dish. Put the Tater Tots in first, spreading them out in a single layer.

  • Top them with the cooked sausage and peppers.

  • Whisk the eggs, milk, salt and pepper together, then add the cheese.

  • Pour the egg and cheese mix into the casserole dish covering the Tater Tots, sausage and peppers.

  • Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake 30 minutes more or until the cheese bubbles and starts to turn brown.

  • Remove from the oven and cut into squares.

  • Serve with fresh fruit, croissants (these are our favorite), coffee, orange juice or mimosas.

  • Enjoy!

Notes:

  • Perfect for a holiday breakfast, brunch or to make on the weekend.

  • The cheesy, sausage, Tater Tot loaded mix is especially good after a night out. 👍😉

  • You can use any type of cheese you like; Cheddar, Colby, Monterey Jack, Mexican or whatever you have in the fridge.

  • Try it with sausage, bacon, ham or all three!

  • This can be assembled the night before and kept in the fridge, but don’t cook the casserole until morning.
