These golden nuggets of potatoes are delicious in a casserole dish that also includes sausage and shredded cheese. A hearty and yummy breakfast that will make your family want to linger and enjoy a weekend breakfast together.

We love Tater Tots and think they should be enjoyed often. Whether in a casserole or as a side dish with a big bowl of spicey ketchup.

This recipe only takes a handful of ingredients and most you should have on hand.
