Name: Country Breakfast Casserole
Ingredients: 1 16-oz package sausage; 1 chopped green onion; 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese; 6 eggs, lightly beaten; 1 cup water; 1/2 cup milk; 2 cups frozen tater tots; 1 2.64-oz country gravy mix; 6 slices of bread, cubed; 2 Tablespoons butter

Confession: Sometimes when I drop my husband off at work in the mornings, I stop and get myself a country breakfast burrito from Taco Time. Maybe it’s just laziness, but they just taste SO good! There’s just something about the combination of tater-tots and country gravy! I figured if the combo tastes great in a tortilla, I bet it would taste great as a hot breakfast casserole. I was right! This breakfast casserole is great for brinner, brunch, or any meal in between!

I love the addition of potatoes! Hasbrowns are one of my favorite things so this captures all of my fav breakfast foods in one. ~Cheryl http://snaps-of-ginger.blogspot.com/

  It is a lighter colored gravy that is often served over biscuits or chicken fried steak. You can by it in a Schilling Country Gravy mix packet.

Would it work to make this the night before, or would it be gross?

  that is the only way i do it.. do it the night before so that when you wake up, you just put it in the oven for 25-30 mins.. My recipe, i put the bread down first(torn pieces) then sausage, then pour the egg over everything, then top with cheese(you can add mushroom, peppers, etc. to this mix). the egg soaks into the bread over night and gives a good base. cook a little longer if you like a crunch

I was wondering if there is a way to get the picture to print smaller. The picture printed is so large that it takes a full page. Some of the recipes have the text to the left of the picture and that works much better.
