CARE Recipe: Tater Tot Hash Egg Bake

5 Stars 4 Stars 3 Stars 2 Stars 1 Star

5 from 1 review

Here is another way that I like to use the CARE Tater Tot Hash. At least twice per month, I have an egg bake on my meal plan. Their versatility is endless. My husband is actually the one that discovered using tater tots with riced cauliflower while making brunch one weekend. He paired the hash with bell peppers and eggs. It was delicious. Here I turn it into a bake for easy make-ahead weekday breakfasts.

  • Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
  • Yield: 8 1x

Ingredients

Scale

For Hash

  • 4 garlic clove, minced
  • 4 cups tater tots, (~16 tots per cup)
  • 4 cups riced cauliflower, (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 onion, minced
  • 2 bell pepper, minced

For Bake

  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup low fat milk
  • 8 ounce lean turkey breakfast sausage, crumbled (humane rated or certified recommended)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

Prepare Hash

  1. Crush garlic with the back of a knife and remove peel. Mince and set aside.
  2. Thaw tater tots by placing them on a large dinner plate and microwaving on high for 3 minutes. (If using frozen cauliflower, also microwave it at this time to thaw; drain cauliflower once finished in the microwave to remove excess liquid).
  3. Place thawed tater tots into a large nonstick skillet and crumble by breaking up with a wooden spoon.
  4. Add minced onion and cook until onion is translucent and begins to brown (about 5 min). (To keep the total fat content of the meal down, you are using the fat from the tater tots here to help sauté the onion).
  5. Add garlic, cauliflower, and bell pepper to skillet. Cook together over medium-high heat for an additional 5 min.

Prepare Bake

  1. Lightly grease a 9″x13″ baking dish.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk eggs with milk. Crumble sausage into egg mixture.
  3. Place prepared hash evenly on the bottom of baking dish and top with egg mixture.
  4. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  5. Remove foil and bake an additional 15minutes or until center of eggs are firm and set.
  6. Portion into 8 servings and enjoy!
