TATER TOT BREAKFAST CASSEROLE WITH SAUSAGE RECIPES

Steps:

• Line up the tater tots in a buttered 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
• Add the olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and onion and cook, breaking the sausage up with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly, then sprinkle it over the tater tots.
• In a large bowl, mix the milk, half-and-half, seasoned salt, cayenne, eggs, bell peppers, half of both cheeses and some salt and pepper. Pour over the tots and sausage mixture, then top with the rest of the cheese. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Bake, covered, for about 25 minutes. Remove the foil and continue to bake until the cheese is brown and bubbly and the casserole is cooked through, another 20 to 35 minutes. Cut into squares and serve.

Steps:

• Prepare a glass baking dish (at least 8x10) by spreading butter along the bottom and sides.
• In a bowl, mix eggs, milk, sour cream, chives, seasoned salt, hot sauce and salt and pepper and whisk until well blended.
• Add 2 cups cheddar and 1 cup mozzarella cheese and tots to mixture. Mix well until all tots are coated and all ingredients mixed.
• In small pan, cook sausage until just before done (sausage will finish in the oven), drain well and add to tot mixture.
• Pour the mixture into your pre-greased baking pan and top with the rest of the cheese and the bread crumbs. Spread topping evenly.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until topping is golden brown.
