Simple Christmas Morning Breakfast Ideas
Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole
What you need:
1 bag of frozen tater tots
1 cup of milk
8-10 eggs
shredded cheese
breakfast sausage
What to do:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Brown the sausage and then put it in the bottom of a casserole dish.
3. Whisk the eggs and milk together and season well with salt and pepper. Pour mixture over sausage and top with cheese. (Measure cheese with your heart ;) )
4. Place tots in rows on top of the egg mixture and cover with foil.
5. Bake for 50-60 minutes until eggs are set. I like to uncover with 25 minutes left so the tots get crunchy.
