What ingredients do I need to make this Easy Breakfast Tater Tot Casserole?

• Yellow onion-diced
• Red bell pepper-diced 
• Yellow or green bell pepper– diced 
• Garlic– minced
• Reduced fat cheddar cheese– I like to use Velvetta shreds
• Large eggs– you could use 1 and 3/4 cup liquid eggs if you prefer.
• Unsweetened almond milk– any milk would work keep in mind the point value may vary depending on the milk you use. I like to use unsweetened almond milk to keep the point value down.
• Diced green chilies– for flavor

• Paprika– for flavor
• Oregano– for flavor
• Kosher salt– to taste
• Black pepper– to taste

How do I make this Easy Breakfast Tater Tot Casserole?

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Spray a 9×13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add turkey sausage crumbles, onions and bell peppers and cook until the sausage is heated through and onions are softened.  

Add garlic and sauté 30 seconds. Drain grease, if needed.

In large bowl whisk eggs, almond milk, green chilies, parsley, oregano, paprika, salt and pepper.  

Fold in cheese. Set aside.

Place 10 oz. of the tater tots into the prepared baking dish. If you don’t have a scale to weigh the 10 ounces then just use about 1 cup.

Pour the sausage mixture over the top and spread into an even layer.

Pour egg mixture over the sausage mixture; use a spatula to spread into an even layer.

Top with remaining tater tots.
