Ingredients
- 1 32-ounce bag frozen tater tots kept frozen
- 1 pound pork breakfast sausage
- 1 large onion diced
- 1/2 pound bacon
- 2 cups Colby Jack or cheddar cheese shredded
- 2 cups milk
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions
Heat the oven to 350°F and coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
Combine the frozen tater tots and shredded cheese in a large bowl.
Cook the sausage and diced onion in a skillet until the sausage is no longer pink and the onion is tender. Drain well, then add to the bowl.
Cook the bacon in the same skillet until crisp. Drain, crumble, and toss it with the tater-tot mixture.
Spread the mixture in the prepared baking dish.
Whisk the milk, eggs, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Pour the egg mixture over the tots and bake for about 60 minutes, until the eggs are set and the top is golden.
Rest briefly and sprinkle with diced green onions if desired.
