Loaded Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole

This breakfast casserole it nice and hearty.  Great for a dinner too.   This recipe is easy to cut in half.



LOADED TATER TOT BREAKFAST CASSEROLE
(serves 8-10)

Ingredients:
*1/2 ( 32 oz bag) of frozen tater tots (or you can make your own) about 50 mini
*1 pound bacon, cooked crispy and crumbled
*1 pound breakfast sausage, cooked and crumbled
*1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
*1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
*1/2 - 1 green bell pepper, chopped
*1/2 - 1 red bell pepper, chopped
*1/2-1 small yellow onion, chopped
*6 eggs
*1/2 teaspoon salt
*1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
*1/2 cup heavy cream
*1 1/2 cups milk
*Sriracha (optional)
*sour cream (optional)

Directions:
~Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
~Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with a non stick spray.
~Spread tater tots on a cookie sheet and bake for 10 minutes (this step can be skipped, but I prefer it
  this way.  It keeps them a little more crispy)
~Remove from oven and set aside.
~In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt and pepper.
~Whisk in cooked sausage, bacon, red pepper, green pepper, onion, salt and pepper.
~Stir in half of the cheese.
~Pour egg mixture into prepared baking pan.
~Spread tater tots evenly on top.
~Bake in oven for 40 minutes.
~Remove from oven and sprinkle on remaining cheese over the top.
~Return to oven and cook for another 5 minutes.
~Drizzle Sriracha over the top and serve with a dollop of sour cream (optional)
