A simple but addicting breakfast/brunch casserole with sausage, mild green chilies, cheese and tater tots, oh my!

INGREDIENTS:

1 lb. ground country style sausage, browned
1 (4 oz. can) mild diced green chilies, drained (or medium-heat for spicier flavor)
2 cups medium shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups milk
3 large eggs, beaten
1-1/2 lbs. frozen crispy Ore Ida tater tots (='s 3/4's of a 2-lb. bag)

METHOD

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Place sausage in a large skillet, and cook over medium-high heat until evenly brown using a spatula to bread into small bits. Drain, and spread evenly in bottom of a glass 9x13" baking dish. Sprinkle over sausage the diced green chilies, then shredded cheese.

In medium bowl, beat the eggs. Add the milk, and mix to combine. Pour mixture over cheese. Top with tater tots, and gently press into mixture.

Bake casserole, uncovered, for 45 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes, uncovered, before serving. ~ Enjoy!

Tip: I found it's also most-excellent topped with a bit of salsa and a tiny dollop of sour cream (over-the-top heavenly)...
