What do you need to make this casserole?
– 32 oz. frozen tater tots
– 1 lb. breakfast sausage, crumbled
– 6 large eggs
– 1 cup milk
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
– 1/2 cup diced onions
– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
– Salt and black pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
How do you prepare the casserole?
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). This step ensures your casserole cooks evenly.
Next, cook the crumbled breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium heat. This takes about 5-7 minutes. Keep stirring to break it into smaller pieces. Once it’s brown, drain any excess grease.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Add garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.
Now, take a greased 9×13-inch baking dish and spread half of the frozen tater tots across the bottom. This base layer gives a great texture.
Evenly distribute the cooked sausage over the tater tots. Next, sprinkle the diced bell peppers and onions across the sausage.
Pour the egg mixture over everything. Make sure it seeps into all the layers. This helps in cooking them evenly.
With the remaining tater tots, create a second layer on top. Press them down gently to help them stick to the egg mixture. Finally, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over everything.
Bake the casserole for 35-40 minutes. It’s done when the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the casserole feels firm.
Let it cool for a few minutes, then cut it into squares. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color. Serve it warm straight from the dish. You can even add hot sauce for extra flavor.
This dish makes mornings feel special and is sure to please everyone!

- 32 oz frozen tater tots
- 1 lb breakfast sausage, crumbled
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup diced bell peppers (mix of red and green)
- 0.5 cup diced onions
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 to taste Salt
- 1 to taste black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the crumbled breakfast sausage until it is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to break it into smaller pieces. Once cooked, transfer the sausage to a colander to drain any excess grease.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully blended, creating a smooth mixture. Add in the garlic powder, smoked paprika, and a pinch of salt and black pepper; whisk again to incorporate the seasonings evenly.
Take a greased 9x13-inch baking dish and spread half of the frozen tater tots in a single, even layer across the bottom.
Distribute the cooked sausage evenly over the layer of tater tots. Next, sprinkle the diced bell peppers and onions uniformly across the sausage.
Carefully pour the egg mixture over the layered sausage and vegetables, ensuring that it seeps into all the nooks and crannies for even cooking.
With the remaining tater tots, create a second layer on top, pressing them down gently to ensure they adhere to the egg mixture. Finish by generously sprinkling the shredded cheddar cheese over the top for a delightful melt.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the casserole is firm to the touch, and the cheese is melted and has a bubbly golden appearance.
Once finished, remove from the oven and let the casserole sit for a few minutes to cool slightly before cutting into squares. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a vibrant touch.
Serve warm directly from the baking dish and consider offering a side of hot sauce for extra heat.
