Description

If you’re looking for a hearty, satisfying, and ultra-comforting way to start your day, this Tater Tot Sausage Breakfast Casserole is exactly what your breakfast table needs.


Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 (32 oz) bag frozen tater tots
  • 1 lb ground breakfast sausage, cooked and crumbled
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (mild or sharp)
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 ½ cups milk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional add-ins: chopped bell peppers, green onions, diced tomatoes, jalapeños

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2: Layer the Ingredients

Spread the cooked sausage evenly in the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the sausage. Arrange tater tots in a single layer over the top.

Step 3: Mix the Egg Mixture

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Pour the mixture evenly over the casserole, making sure to cover the tots.

Step 4: Bake

Bake uncovered for 45–50 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the tater tots are golden and crispy on top.

Step 5: Serve

Let the casserole rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with your favorite breakfast sides or sauces.

It’s that easy—and that delicious.

Notes

  • Assemble the casserole the night before, cover tightly, and refrigerate overnight.
  • In the morning, remove from fridge 30 minutes before baking to bring to room temperature.
  • Bake as directed, adding 5–10 minutes if still cold.
