Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 12 oz. bacon
- 8 oz. sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup diced ham
- 1 red pepper, diced
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced green onion
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 10 eggs
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 32 oz. frozen tater tots
- oil/butter for greasing the baking dish
- Kosher salt
- fresh cracked pepper
- fresh chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Heat oven to 400 degrees.
- Arrange bacon on a parchment/foil-lined baking sheet in a single layer.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until it’s cooked through and crisp. Set aside to cool, then crumble.
- Reduce heat to 350 degrees.
- Lightly grease a 9×13 baking dish with olive oil or butter.
- Add bacon, cheese, ham, red pepper, green onion, garlic powder, and a couple large pinches of salt and pepper to the baking dish.
- Stir to combine.
- Add eggs, heavy cream, and a couple pinches of salt and pepper to a large mixing bowl.
- Whisk until well combined.
- Pour over the veggie/meat mixture in an even layer.
- Add frozen tater tots, spreading them in an even layer on top of the eggs. They will overlap – that’s okay.
- Bake for 55-60 minutes or until the eggs are set.
- Garnish with fresh parsley, slice, and enjoy!
Notes
- You’ll know the eggs are done when a knife inserted into the center of the casserole comes out clean and the eggs look “set” and not jiggly.
- This egg casserole can be made up to 24 hours in advance. Just wait to add the frozen tater tots until just before baking.
- Reheat leftovers in the microwave or in a saute pan with a lid over medium-high heat.
- Substitute whatever you’d like for the veggies, cheese, and meats. Just keep the measurements the same and the casserole will turn out great every single time!
