I used hot and spicy sausage to spice it up! Everyone loved it.
Note the second occurence of the word ‘milk’ should be ‘mushrooms’. -
I was a bit surprised, but found this to be absolutely delicious!
-
I cooked this “casserole” for a brunch at work. It was an instant hit. Everyone wanted the recipe. I will definitely make this again. It held well overnight and cooked in exactly the time alloted in the recipe. I made a few changes in the original recipe, leaving out the mushrooms and mushroom soup and adding green and red pepper for color. Instead of the mushroom soup, I used cream of celery. I also used half egg substitute and half eggs, as well as turkey sausage, to lower the fat content. This is a great recipe to “build” however the occaision presents.

A very easy and comforting breakfast/brunch or emergency dinner recipe. Add green pepper and/or fresh mushrooms or even sauteed onions for variety. Kids will love this recipe without the mushrooms. A great dish for the frantic holidays.
-
I made this recipe for “Treat Day” at my office. I used bacon in one casserole and sausage in the other. It was a major hit absolutely everyone wanted the recipe!!!! PS The bacon was the favorite. Next time I think I will add onions for a little different flavor. Thanks again
-
I’ve made this twice in the past two weeks and got rave reviews. I’d definitely make this dish again!
-
Quick and Easy and very tasty!! Prepared it for a group of Boy Scouts and leaders. Went over very well!!
-
I thought this was great. I made it the night before and added the tater tots in the morning before putting in the oven. Next time I will use hot sausage. Would like to see a recipe that uses fresh potatoes, instead of tots.
-
We had Christmas Brunch on Christmas Eve. We cooked about 20 recipes from this site as the main dished. This recipes and the Bread Crust Zucchini were the all time hits! This was also one of the easiest and quickest recipes on my list. 🙂
-
I made this for Christmas morning and we enjoyed it after opening gifts. What a hit! It was very quick, easy, and delicious. My dad just loved it and kept telling my Mom that she MUST make this. Thanks for sharing, Sue. This is a keeper.
-
I had a houseful for Christmas, and made two batches; one with mushrooms and one without. It was a big hit all around.
-
My family loved this casserole. Will make again!
-
We thought this recipe was both easy and delicious!! I added diced ham instead of sausage and used eggbeaters. GREAT RECIPE – thanks.
-
Great recipe! I took it to work and everyone loved it. I made it the night before and threw the tater tots on it in the morning and it was perfect. I will definitely make this for company.
-
This is an excellent dish. I baked it early in the AM and took it on the road with us in a covered casserole dish and wrapped in a towel. An hour later it was still steaming hot and although the cheese looked a little funny it was very tasty!
-
This casserole turned out wonderful! I used turkey sausage and low fat cheese to cut the calories and it was still awesome! A keeper…
-
This made a great and easy breakfast. I had company, so I assembled the casserole the night before, and popped it in the oven in the morning. It took a little longer to bake than expected though.
-
We loved this easy to make casserole! I assembled the casserole the night before. The next morning I added the tator tots and cheese and cooked it. We covered it, wrapped it in a big towel and took it to work where it was nice and hot. Instead of mushrooms, I used green peppers and although everyone gave us compliments at work some people said they did not care for green peppers. Next time I make it for a large group of people, I will make it very plain (no vegetables). For my family, we like the works! Thanks for the recipe and thanks everybody for the “tips and substitutions” on this recipe.
-
I thought this recipe was great! Several of my friends asked for the recipe when I brought it to the office for breakfast! I have e-mailed the recipe to them! I scaled the recipe to 1/3, and had enough for 4-5 good servings.
-
I was a little weary serving this with mushrooms in it to my kids, but they loved it and our guest loved it, too. Great easy weekend breakfast!
-
I TRIED THIS RECIPE USING 12 OZ. OF LOUIS RICH TURKEY BACON,1/2 EGGS AND 1/2 EGG BEATERS,SKIM EVAPORATED MILK, AND REDUCED FAT SHARP CHEDDAR. WE ALL LOVED IT. I’M ADDICTED! STILL TASTES RICH, BUT NOT THAT FATTENING. THANKS! WILL TRY IT ON HOLIDAYS!
-
Great one pot breakfast. I have even adapeted it to Dutch oven cooking for my Boy Scout troop for winter base camping.
-
I’m still looking for the perfect breakfast casserole. I liked this but I’m still looking. I didn’t think it had enough flavor. If I make it again, I’ll try bacon.
-
Pretty good, needs some hot or spicy sausage to give it a little more flavor, but not bad. Would make again but change a little to spice it up.
-
I brought this to work for my Breakfast Club. It was a hit and my husband also loved it.
-
This was fun to make. I sauteed fresh mushrooms with onions in olive oil instead of canned mushrooms. I served this at a brunch and it was well received.
-
I made this for my work group and it was a hit! I used mild turkey sausage cooked with
seasoning and chili powder. Also used Ore Ida Onion Tator Tots and accompanied
the casserole with a bottle of Tobasco sauce for those who like more kick. A very easy
and adaptable recipe. -
I was looking for an ideal breakfast casserole for Christmas morning and have found it! Very tasty. . .
-
This is even better served with salsa. I served it to the Board of Directors at my place of employement, and all the women asked for the recipe!
-
Don’t let the tater tots throw you off. I mad this for a family brunch and what a hit. The key is not to use as many taters!
-
Made my life easier for a quick breakfast when we were busy entertaining out of town guests. Thanks
-
My whole family loved this on Christmas morning!
-
Not bad but not great either. It didn’t have quite enough flavor. Maybe salt should one of the ingredients. I also didn’t like the cream of mushroom soup. It made the casserole a little to mushy for my liking.
-
This Casseroll was incredible!!!
With a busy Christmas morning this was quick, easy and DELICIOUS!!! The other half must have eaten 3 plates full… HIGHLY RECCOMENDED!
-
My family absolutely loved this dish! Five stars all the way. I made it for Christmas breakfast (w/ Monkey Bread – also a winner!) and it was a huge hit. I used 16 oz. of chopped ham rather than sausage, and I think that the ham gave the recipe the extra salt that it needed. I also cooked it for an extra 15 minutes or so because the center of the dish took a little extra time to set. I’ll definitely make this again.
-
I made this on Xmas morning. Everyone loved it! I made the sausage the day before and mixed the ingrediants early that AM. I will make again!!!!!!!!!
-
I made this today for our New Years Day breakfast. I did read the reviews first before making it. Most of which said it needed more flavoring. So I did add some onions that I sauted while I cooked the sausage. I also added a 1/2 teaspoon salt. And used 2 cups of cheddar cheese and it was Great. So just add other ingredients according to your own taste. It is a great recipe. Thanks.
-
This was really great. We even heated up the leftovers the following morning and they were as good if not better! Thanks for the recipe!
-
Great for the whole family!!
-
I made this recipe for a Christmas breakfast at the school where I work. I went over very well. It was also extremely easy to put together! I will definitely try this one again. Thanks!
-
Wonderful recipe, best assembled entirely the night before (that way the tater tots are not recognizable and the dish has better texture). I skip the cheese and it’s great. You can leave out the milk and it’s takes half the cooking time, although it tastes better with the milk.
-
-
WOW did I get a GREAT response from this one! Even my biggest critics LOVED it! I changed it up a bit. I added some different sautteed vegetables and salsa to the egg mixture, and then I layered the casserole. I started with a layer of tater tots on the bottom and continued with rotating layers of sausage, egg mixture and cheese! Out of sight! Thanks for the recipe!
-
Excellent! My daughter and I assembled it the night before for out of town guests for brunch in the morning. Just popped it in the oven and voila…everyone enjoyed it very much. I would definitely make this again. Even my picky daughter loved it!
-
This one was a hit with visitors. For the first time someone demanded having a recipe of something I’ve fixed. Delicious!
-
I decided to try this recipe because I was tired of all the same old same old…IT WAS GREAT!! My family are huge breakfast fans and this was a great change. Plus, it is able to serve alot!! It is easy to whip up and throw in the oven to cook while you are doing other things. For a little spice, I added 1/4 cup chopped red and green peppers. I’ve recently passed the recipe onto my mom and now I’ve got them addicted too!! thank you!!

-
This was my first time making a breakfast casserole. I couldn’t believe how simple it was to make. I added more mushrooms in place of the sausage because my husband doesn’t eat meat and it came out delicious!! This is a recipe I will make over and over again.
-
I like to try a lot of egg casseroles and my family really raved about this one!
I left out the mushrooms since my group doesn’t like them. Very good and
a great brunch recipe. -
I’ve had a lot of different breakfast casseroles and this is THE BEST so far. Everyone at my breakfast loved it — men and women. The mushroom soup sounded wierd, but it worked! I did one layer of tater tots, one layer of crumbled sausage, one layer of sauteed fresh mushrooms, red peppers and onions, and one layer of pepper jack and cheddar cheese; added some salt and green Tabasco to the egg mixture and poured all over the top of the casserole. A sprinkling of paprika for color and it was a beautiful as well as tasty dish. I’ve made this several times now — great make-ahead meal! It will take longer to cook than the recipe says — about 1 to 1.5 hours to properly set up.
-
Yummy, yummy! Very easy to prepare. I would recommend preparing it the night before and in the morning just add the tater tots and pop it in the oven. It definitely reduces stress in the morning!
-
I added some frozen peas and it came out wonderful.
-
Very good, Have picky teenagers they both ate three helpings 🙂 Next time would add onions, green peppers.
-
I made this recipe but I used salsa like alot of other people did, I also added cooked and rumbled bacon, I also doubled up on the mushrooms, it still didn’t have alot of flavor, I think next time I will add chopped and sauted onions and pepers. I think that is the extra kick it needs. But my kids and sister liked it, I also cooked it for an extra 10 minutes because it was a little runny in the middle.
-
I only made 1/2 a recipe and wasn’t sure how long to cook it. I took it our early, but should have left it in the full amount of time.
-
I’ve been making this recipe for quite some time. I use half as much milk as the recipe calls for so it cooks faster. I cook it 50 min to an hour. I also thaw the frozen potatoes first so it cooks faster. I have tried all sorts of frozen potatoes. Tastes better with green pepper and onion. I also use 1 cup cheese, 1/c up mixed with the egg mixture and 1/2 cup on top at the end of baking.
-
Very tasty. May have preferred using sliced potatoes instead of tater tots.
-
This recipe was a huge hit with my guests. I used cream of celery instead of cream of mushroom. I also used sausage in pound tube and made sure it was browned and separated into small pieces. The casserole turned out very flavorful!
-
This casserole was fantastic!!! I added some onion when I browned the sausage, and I also put a pound of cooked crumbled bacon in the mix. It was a hit! I will definently make this over, and over again!! Edited on 1/19/2007..The last few times I used 2 pounds of spicy J. Dean sausage instead of 1. It really enhances the flavors!
-
I made this exactly according to the directions and thought it had a little too much egg and not quite enough potato. If I do it again I’m going to cut back on the eggs and use more tater tots. It was pretty good, though and my family seemed to enjoy it.
-
My daughter-in-law prepared this for a morning breakfast when we were visiting, she used Alfredo Sauce instead of mushroom soup – delicious.
-
I was a little concerned about using tater tots but they came out great. I did what someone suggested and made it the night before and just added the tots and cheese the next morning. I also added some ham to give it extra flavor. I cut the recipe in half but cooked it for the whole time…we loved it…it was even good the next day.
-
This is the best!!!!So easy and very good tasting.
I used the hot sausage and spicy potatoes and it was a hit at our (covered dish) weekend away. -
Excellent, excellent, excellent! Forget the holidays..this is great year-round! 😉
One note: if you don’t thaw the tater tots, you will have a very soupy consistency. Otherwise it’s great. -
This casserole was delicous. I used precooked ham instead of sausage. I also waited to add the cheese until about half way through the cooking time. Would also recommend cooking a bit longer. This recipe was a hit with our guests! Two of them even asked for a copy of the recipe.
-
Delicious!!! I tried the layered approach (tots, sausage, mushrooms, cheese) then put the eggs mixture on top. I also used a large souffle pan instead of the rectangular dish to give it depth. Assembled it completely the night before and it came out beautifully. The cheese gave it a nice brown crown. Will definitely make again 😀
-
This recipe was fantastic especially since it was so quick and easy to make. I would recommend this to anyone!!
-
My family absolutely LOVED this one, made 2 pans for my son’s first communion, and they were instantly gone, even the kids loved it…….I will make this one over and over and over!!! Thanks for a fab recipe.
-
This was a big hit for my family. They don’t like mushrooms, so I used Cream of Chicken soup and sauteed some bell pepper instead. Thanks!
-
This recipe is so good! I made this for company and everyone loved it and had seconds. I will make this again, but will make a couple minor changes. I agree that adding a little onion and possibly chopped green pepper would make it even better. I used sage sausage because my family prefers it to regular sausage. I also needed to bake it about an extra 10 minutes, but the texture then was perfect. And it is so easy to prepare, which makes it a hit for me. Thanks for a great recipe.
-
I loved this! Tator totes are a delicious addition. Think next time I will use ham instead of sausage as potatoes and ham go especially well together. Also, I used spicy sausage and no mushrooms, onions or green & red pepper. If I was making for brunch I would have added those but since we were having it for breakfast thought I would keep it simple. Will definitely make again.
-
This was excellent!! It was a very filling breakfast casserole. All ages loved this. We had leftovers and this casserole tasted even better the next day – if that is even possible.
I will make again when we have overnight company.Kerri-Ia
-
I thought this was ok. My guests said they liked it. But there are too many potatoes.
I will make this again, but with half the potatos and more vegtables and meat.
The cheese makes more of a crust on top… next time I will add the cheese in the casserole and then serve it with more on top. -
I skipped the canned mushrooms and added some salt and pepper. Quite tasty
-
I won’t make this again.
-
Not a 5star recipe, but not bad. Needs more veggies, it was quite bland.
-
Good. A little bland, we will try to use cubed Velveeta cheese to blend the mixture together. Otherwise a great dish!
-
This was very tasty. I made it for Christmas eve morn for guests and everyone loved it. Although, somehow I forgot to add the potatoes. =)(that holiday stress) I added a red bell pepper and onion and I only had 10 eggs.. Delicious!!!
-
My family really enjoyed this casserole. I thought the flavors mixed together were excellent. I did not follow the recipe exactly based on suggestions from others that tried this recipe. I used sage sausage (added some garlic and onion powder), left out the mushrooms (yuck), added white onion, green peppers (sauteed) and it was a big hit. My husband also added a hint of hot sauce to his before he ate it and said it was delicious and that it gave it an extra kick.
-
This was very good, but a little bland. Next time I will add some crushed red pepper, salt, and black pepper to spice it up and probably will not use the whole bag of tater tots – it had lots of potatoes. It was a big hit, though, and I will make it again with a few revisions!
-
This was a big hit Christmas morning, although I modified the recipe a bit. Skipped the tater tots and added 4 slices of cubed toast instead. I only used 9 eggs, and was afraid the soup would make it too runny, so I just used 2 cups of milk. Added onions and green/red peppers for some additional flavor and color and used shredded monterey jack & cheddar cheese, which I also sprinkled on the top about 5 minutes before it finished cooking. This was really filling… didn’t really need the pancakes and toast I also served — but at least everybody was full till dinner! 🙂
-
This was absolutely delicious! We made ahead to serve Christmas morning. Everyone went back and had seconds … even delaying some of the present opening!
-
I made this Christmas Eve and baked it Christmas morning. The result was not good. The top half baked fine, but the bottom was pure soup! Too many eggs perhaps?
-
This was a easy recipe to follow and it lends itself to modification really well. I personally was looking for a breakfast casserole I could make with potatoes because I had a lot of JoJos (from the deli) left over. I subbed the JoJos for the Tater Tots, and the recipe turned out great!
-
My family loved this recipe. I feed seven people with plenty of leftovers! I did sautee onions and green peppers with the sausage for some added flavor and made the entire recipe (including throwing in the tator tots) the evening prior. The consistency was just fine. I added about one-half cup of sharp cheddar to the recipe, and topped it off with about the same during the last ten minutes. This was yummy and a new family favorite!
-
Became an instant family favorite. Many requests for recipe.
-
OMG is this easy and ohhhh so good. The family loves it! Thanks
-
The kids did not like it. I’m going to wrap tortillas around it next time and maybe they will like it.
-
added a pound of crumbled bacon also was very good
-
Everyone loved this recipe, old and young alike. The only change I made is adding about 1/2 cup of cheese to the mixture before I put it in the baking dish because we really love cheese. I put it together the night before and stored it in the fridge. It still came out fine.
-
GREAT! I used potatoes o’brien instead of tater tots and didn’t have mushrooms to add… but added some garlic powder and onion powder to the potatoes and half cooked them before adding them to the mix. Very tasty leftovers!!!
-
One word: Excellent! I took many other’s advice and added some chopped red & green bell peppers, and some chopped green onion to the eggs. Also, I added a dash of onion & garlic powder to the tots. 5 minutes before it was done, I sprinkled a little more cheese on the top to melt. My boyfriend and I couldn’t get enough of this great stuff! Thank you!!
-
This recipe received rave reviews from an office full of women. Who ever heard of cream of mushroom soup in eggs?? This recipe is a real keeper. I added 1/2 can of sour cream to the eggs and canadian bacon with the sausage and sprinkled greed onions on the top after cooking, everyone loved it. Thanks to the orginator!!!!!
-
Sage sausage gives it a really nice kick. As recommended, I added sauted onion & minced garlic, green peppers, fresh mushrooms. I also used frozen hash browns rather than tater tots. I doubled the recipe, but found I only really needed one 32 oz. pkg of hash browns.
-
I made this casserole for a church breakfast. It was extremely easy to make. The recipe was right on the money as far as baking time, but my 9×13 baking dish wouldn’t hold all of the egg mixture. I have frozen it and will bake it early next week. The texture of the casserole and the flavor were excellent. There were some leftovers, since this is a very filling dish. They were at least as good as the first time around. Next time I make it, I will try some of the suggestions made by other reviewers. Definitely a five-star recipe.
-
Easy to make and yummy! This went over very well.
-
Loved this receipe. I only had tator tots, so I used them to cover the bottom only of the baking dish. I did not use the full bag. Also, I mixed one cup of cheddar cheese into the eggs in stead of putting it on top. The casserole turned out moist and yummy. I did need to cook it for an hour however. It’s great for supper too! Thanks Sue.
-
This was soooo yummy. We made it for dinner and everyone loved it. My neighbor could even smell it and thought it smelled great. Added to recipe box and will make again.
-
Very good. Odds are it will be a little soupy when you pull it out, but all you have to do is put it back in (I actually had to add almost 30 minutes extra cooking time). Spicy/sage sausage gives it a little extra and needed flavor.
-
I am on a diet so I used reduced fat sausage, egg beaters and reduced fat cream of mushroom soup and it was still delicious! I can’t imagine what it tastes like with the “real” ingredients! I would however beat the eggs a little longer so they get fluffier and less dense.
