Recipe Added:  12/30/2019 
12-16 ozs ground breakfast sausage
1 cup peppers, diced (any color)
1/2 cup finely diced onion
1 4-oz can chopped green chilies
6-8 large eggs
1 cup milk or half & half
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
24 ozs (6 cups) frozen tater tots/puffs
1 cup grated Cheddar cheese
1 cup grated Monterey/Pepper Jack cheese
chopped green onion or chives (optional)
Sour cream and salsa, for serving
Brown sausage, peppers and onions until brown and tender. Drain grease, add green chilies. Whisk together eggs, milk, sour cream, salt and pepper until smooth.

Lightly grease 9x13 baking pan. Place tater tots in a single layer across bottom in a single layer. Sprinkle sausage and veggies over tater tots, then cheese. Pour egg mixture over all. Cover dish with lightly greased foil and refrigerate (overnight, up to 18 hours) OR bake right away. 

When ready, preheat oven to 350F, and bake, covered 30 minutes. Uncover, bake 25-30 minutes more (or until eggs are not runny, 10-15 minutes) until golden, bubbly, and set. Sprinkle with green onions or chives, if using. Serve warm.
Notes
Sausage/Meat: this recipe is adaptable to personal meat preference (sausage, ham, bacon, ground beef, etc.) or it can be left meatless. Chopped ham or cooked bacon would work great, too, in place of the sausage or in addition to.

This casserole tastes FABULOUS and is a favorite for Christmas morning breakfasts. 
Advanced Preparation
Prep the day before, chill overnight, then bake in the morning.
