To make this casserole recipe, you’ll need ground sausage, eggs, half and half, garlic powder, salt and pepper, shredded cheddar cheese and tater tots.

To get started, you’ll want to preheat your oven to 350℉. Using a skillet, you’ll want to brown the ground sausage. Cook over medium heat until browned and break into small pieces. Once fully cooked, remove the skillet with the sausage from the heat, drain the grease and set it aside until you’re ready to add it.

You’ll also want to get out a 9′ x 13′ baking dish for your tater tot breakfast casserole with sausage and prep it by coating it with cooking oil spray. Once the pan is ready, take the sausage and sprinkle it across the bottom of your casserole dish in an even layer.

Using a medium sized mixing bowl, whisk together your eggs, the garlic powder, salt and pepper and the half and half.

Make sure that everything is well mixed and then pour this mixture over the sausage that you placed in the baking dish. Top it generously with the shredded cheese.

After adding the cheese, you’ll want to add a layer of frozen tater tors on top of the mixture. Be sure not to submerge your tater tots and just to carefully add them to the top.

Bake this tater tot breakfast casserole with sausage for 50 minutes or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let the casserole sit to cool for 5 minutes before you serve.
