POTATO AND CHEESE BREAKFAST CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Arrange Tater Tots® in a single layer on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until potato nuggets are partially cooked, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven.
• Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
• While the potatoes bake, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage, onion, chili powder, basil, and garlic in the hot skillet until sausage is browned and crumbly and onion is soft, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease.
• Whisk eggs and cream together in a bowl until evenly blended; season with pepper.
• Arrange partially-cooked potato nuggets in the prepared casserole dish; sprinkle with Cheddar cheese. Spread sausage mixture over cheese layer. Pour egg mixture over sausage layer.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set in the middle and lightly browned, 30 to 40 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
