This recipe looks so good! I will have to try it one weekend morning!

Tater Tot Turkey Sausage Breakfast Casserole

   What you need:

2 lb bag of tater tots, thawed

1 lb ground turkey sausage

1 yellow onion, diced

2 cups 2% cheddar cheese (or cheese blend), divided

4 large eggs

1 1/2 C skim milk

1 T hot sauce

Salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 375°. Lay thawed tater tots out on baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes to make sure the moisture is cooked out. Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the sausage and onion. Drain off fat and set aside. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs and add the milk, hot sauce, salt and pepper, and stir to combine.

Pour sausage and onion mixture in a 9X13 pan.

Layer 1 1/2 cups of the cheese over the sausage mixture.

Pour the egg and milk mixture over that.

Line the entire pan with the tater tots (every single one fit perfectly, it's like a sign or something that you should make this!)

Bake, uncovered, for 35 minutes. Pull out of the oven and top with remaining 1/2 cup of cheese, and bake for a remaining 5 minutes.

Remove from oven and cool slightly before serving.
