Instructions:
Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and set it aside.
Cook the Sausage
In a large skillet, cook the breakfast sausage over medium heat until browned and cooked through.
Use a spatula to break up the sausage into smaller crumbles as it cooks.
Once cooked, remove the sausage from the skillet and drain any excess grease.
Assemble the Casserole
In a large bowl, combine the cooked sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and frozen tater tots.
Transfer the mixture to the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Prepare the Egg Mixture
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Bake to Perfection
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the tater tot layer in the baking dish.
Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown and slightly crispy.
Serve and Enjoy
Once done, remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
Garnish with chopped green onions and hot sauce, if desired.
Serve the Tator Tot Breakfast Casserole warm, cut into squares, and savor every delicious bite!
