Ingredients
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 2 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
- 2 cups whole milk
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 2 pounds frozen tater tots
- 3-4 green onions, sliced
- 4 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
Instructions
- In a large skillet, brown the sausage on medium high heat, breaking up the meat as it cooks. Drain and layer into a 9x13 baking dish. Sprinkle 2 cups of the cheese evenly over sausage.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, pepper, onion powder, and salt until combined. Pour evenly over the cheese and sausage in baking dish. Layer frozen tater tots over the top.
- If not baking right away, cover tightly with foil and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight. When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake, uncovered for about 35 minutes. Then top with additional ½ cup cheese, crumbled bacon, and bake another 5-10 minutes, or until bubbling and golden brown.
