- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the tater tots, sausage, and vegetables in the baking dish.
6. Add the cheese:
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese (or your choice of cheese) evenly on top of the casserole.
7. Bake the casserole:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is melted and bubbly. If you want the top to be extra crispy, you can broil it for the last 2-3 minutes, but watch carefully to avoid burning.
8. Serve:
- Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
- Garnish with fresh parsley if desired for added color and flavor.
Tips:
- Add more veggies: You can add mushrooms, spinach, or any other vegetables you like to this casserole for extra nutrition.
- Make it ahead: You can assemble the casserole the night before, cover it tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, just bake it as directed (you may need to add a few extra minutes to the baking time if it’s cold from the fridge).
- Cheese options: Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese such as mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or even a blend of cheeses.
This Cheesy Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole is an easy, crowd-pleasing dish that everyone will love. It’s perfect for busy mornings or when you have a brunch gathering. Enjoy!
