How do you make Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole?

First, you start by preparing your ingredients. Shred your cheese, chop your vegetables, and cook any meat you are using that doesn’t come precooked. I’m using breakfast sausage, so I fry that up until it’s golden brown, then cool enough to slice it. Then you layer the ingredients: meat, vegetables, cheese, egg mixture in the bottom of a greased baking dish, and top with tater tots (no need to thaw!). I put my tater tots on last because I like them as crispy as can be, but you can stir them in with the rest of the ingredients before pouring the egg on if you prefer. Then, you simply bake until the eggs are set and the tater tots are golden. Slice and serve!

How to lighten up this breakfast casserole?

Try using cauliflower or sweet potato tots in your frozen veggie aisle and use those instead. Choose a low fat milk instead of whole Try a low fat cheese. Add in extra vegetables. Choose turkey sausage or ham instead of pork sausage or bacon.
