Instructions

  • With a sharp knife, cut each biscuit into quarters and set aside.
    1 can (16.3 oz.) Pillsbury Grands, Southern Homestyle Biscuits, Buttermilk
  • Place the tater tots on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
    1 (32 oz.) bag frozen tater tots
  • Top the tater tots with cooked sausage, bell peppers, biscuit chunks, cheese, bacon, and green onion.
    2 cups seasoned sausage, browned and drained, (I used Jimmy Dean Hot sausage), 2 cups chopped, green bell peppers, 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, 10 slices bacon, fully cooked and crumbled, 1/3 cup sliced green onion
  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, and seasonings. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the casserole.
    7 large eggs, 1-1/2 cups half and half, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/4 tsp table salt, 1/4 tsp finely ground black pepper
  • Cover the casserole tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • While the oven is preheating, remove the chilled casserole from the refrigerator so it’s not too cold when it goes into the oven.
  • Bake casserole for 50-55 minutes or until eggs are cooked through, especially in the middle of the casserole. Remove from oven and let rest 10 minutes before serving.
