Ingredients
12 ounces ground pork breakfast sausage
6 ounces shredded cheddar cheese, plus extra to sprinkle over top
8 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
One 32-ounce bag frozen tater tots
Thinly sliced chives, for serving
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350˚F.
Warm a 12-inch oven-safe skillet over medium heat, and add the sausage. Cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the pan from heat.
Whisk together the eggs, milk, salt and pepper in a medium bowl.
Spread the sausage into an even layer over the bottom of the skillet. Sprinkle with the shredded cheese, and pour the egg mixture over the top.
Arrange the frozen tater tots over the egg mixture in concentric circles, starting with a row around the rim of the pan and working your way in, or vice versa. Bake the casserole. Bake until the eggs have fully set and the cheese has melted, 35 to 40 minutes. If desired, sprinkle some additional cheese over top and bake an extra minute or two, until the cheese has melted.
Let the casserole cool slightly before cutting into wedges. Sprinkle with some sliced chives and serve. Leftovers will keep for about 5 days.
