When I make this Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole right before baking it, I like to cook the Tater tots according to the package directions. Steps: Making the Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole The Custard: The custard made with eggs, milk, half and half seasoned with salt and pepper, holds the casserole together. However, you could use just cheddar cheese or mix and match different cheeses. Therefore, you could use green bell pepper if that’s what you have on hand.Ĭheese: I like to use both extra sharp cheddar cheese in the casserole for its flavor and Colby Jack cheese on top for contrast. The red bell pepper was more for color than anything else. Veggies: To add flavor to this casserole, I used onions, red bell pepper, jalapeño peppers, and garlic sautéed in some butter. Sausage: I like to use hot or spicy sausage, but you can use whatever type of bulk breakfast sausage you desire. Tater Tots: Who doesn’t love tater tots made from grated potatoes with a crunchy coating on the little cylinders?
