Mexican Breakfast Casserole
Ingredients:
12 eggs
1 lbs breakfast sausage
2 cups shredded cheese
1 1/2 cup milk or heavy cream
1/2 a bag of tater tots (thawed)
1 small can of green chilies
1/2 tablespoons of dried minced onion
1 Tablespoon of your favorite taco seasoning
S&P to taste
(Pro Tip: I like to air fry my tater tots before I use them just helps insure that all the moisture is out)
What to do:
Preheat your oven to 375°F and spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. This will ensure the casserole doesn’t stick and makes cleanup easier.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the pork sausage, breaking it into small pieces as it browns. Once fully cooked, drain off any excess grease. Set the cooked sausage aside for assembling the casserole.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk or heavy cream, green chilies, salt, black pepper, and taco seasoning until well combined.
Layer the casserole ingredients in the prepared baking dish: first spread out the tater tots evenly, then scatter the cooked sausage, sprinkle on the shredded cheddar cheese, and finally pour the egg mixture evenly over everything.
Cover the casserole dish with foil and bake in the oven for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for another 20 minutes, until the eggs are set and the top is lightly browned. I like to let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before slicing—it comes out cleaner this way.
