Easy Vegetarian Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole

• 份量: 9 servings
• 准备时间: 20 minutes
• 总时间: 1 hour 10 minutes

配料

32 ounces frozen tater tots (I like organic, frozen)

1 cup whole milk (using lesser % may make your casserole more runny)

½ cup heavy cream (or half and half, note this could make your casserole a little more runny)

6 large eggs

1 teaspoon kosher salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

1 tablespoon butter (or olive oil)

1 medium onion (diced)

1 cup mushrooms (finely chopped, I used baby bellas)

1 red bell pepper (finely chopped)

1 medium zucchini (finley chopped)

1 cup Pepper Jack cheese (grated or Monterey Jack cheese)

1 cup Cheddar cheese (cheddar, I used white sharp cheddar)

Garnish with fresh chopped basil or Italian parsley

步骤

Preheat oven.

NOTE: This casserole may be assembled the night before and baked in the morning or baked immediately. If baking immediately, preheat the oven to 350°F (175° C).

Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish. Line the tater tots in an even layer in the bottom of the dish.

Saute onions, peppers, zucchini and mushrooms.

In a large skillet, add olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, saute the onions*, peppers, and zucchini for about 5-7 minutes, then toss in the sliced mushrooms, and continue to saute for 3-4 more minutes until the mushrooms are softened and browned. Allow to cool for a few minutes.

Make egg, cheese and veggie miture.

Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, beat eggs until smooth, adding salt, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), black pepper to taste, milk and cream, and whisk until smooth. Then add the veggie mixture a little at a time to temper the eggs. Stir in the cheese, reserving one cup to sprinkle on top if desired.

Pour over tater tots

Pour over the top of the tater tots, top with remaining cheese.
