Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole

Instructions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
2. 2
   In a skillet over medium heat, cook sausage, breaking it up until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Drain excess fat.
3. 3
   In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
4. 4
   Spread cooked sausage in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle cheddar cheese evenly over sausage. Pour egg mixture over the cheese.
5. 5
   Arrange frozen tater tots in a single, even layer on top (no need to thaw).
6. 6
   Bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes until eggs are set and tater tots are crispy and golden. For extra crunch, broil for 2 minutes at the end.
7. 7
   Rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with green onions if desired. Slice and serve warm.
