# Guide to Cooking:
01 -
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart continuously. Drain excess grease to avoid sogginess.
02 -
Grease a baking dish and evenly arrange half of the frozen tater tots across the bottom to form a crispy foundation.
03 -
Distribute the cooked sausage evenly over the tater tot layer, then sprinkle the diced onions on top.
04 -
Spread a generous layer of shredded cheddar cheese over the sausage and onions, then top with the remaining tater tots for a crispy upper layer.
05 -
Whisk together eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and optional herbs until smooth and fully incorporated.
06 -
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the layered ingredients, allowing it to permeate through. Bake at 190°C for 40 to 45 minutes until set, golden, and bubbling.
