Looking for an easy, comforting breakfast that will satisfy everyone? This delicious egg, bacon and sausage tater tot dish has got you covered!
We served this for a special holiday breakfast, and it was quickly devoured by our hungry crowd! Layers of crispy potato tots, eggs, cheese, bacon, sausage and green onions make this one mouthwatering, cozy meal for mornings at home. This cheesy, dreamy breakfast favorite is so quick to create, and can easily be prepared one day ahead.
The steps are simple:
• Cook bacon ’til crisp (easy method: 375 degree F oven, place bacon on lined baking sheets, bake for 15-18 minutes). Use the same method for cooking chopped sausage. Remove from oven and drain on paper towels. Chop bacon and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 13 x 9-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Line bottom of baking dish with tater tots.
• In a large bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, onion powder, garlic powder and pepper. Add sausage. Stir in half of bacon, half green onions, and half cheese. Pour mixture evenly over tater tots.
• Bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes, or until eggs are set. Sprinkle with remaining bacon, green onions, and cheese. Return dish to oven and cook for 5 minutes, or until cheese has melted.
• Serve warm, slice into squares, and enjoy!
