Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole

It’s been cold here already. Blustery, windy and everything is telling me winter is right around the corner. This of the year is incredibly beautiful here with the seasons changing, but seriously… winter is almost here! It has me craving all types of comfort food and this Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole is one of those things. I love my Crock Pot Tater Tot Egg Bake and I decided I need to make it into a breakfast casserole!

Ahhh!!! I don’t know if I’m ready for this yet (like it matters, right?) but like it or not – it’s time to pull out the boots and put away all things summery {sigh}.

Well instead of complaining I decided I would embrace winter and I’m starting by making casseroles. I’m talking breakfast, lunch and dinner – I have something for everyone here on the blog.

So for breakfast I’m starting off with a casserole. Stick to your ribs, hearty, delicious and of course easy!
