Happy Thursday, friends!
I got a little crazy and added tots to my casserole.
Here’s the deal, I had breakfast sausage. I had chopped kale. I had sweet potato tots. I thought they’d be delicious in a casserole. I was right.
I made this for breakfast, but then I heated it up and had it for lunch the next day, and it was equally as good. This one was a big hit at my house!
I left the cheese out and just kept it really simple, but of course, you could add in some shredded cheese too (gruyere would be delish!).
Fall is the perfect time for easy casseroles.
Enjoy! xx

Notes
If you’re not a fan of sweet potato tots, swap and use regular tots instead. Easy as that!

As a DF girl, I love that there’s no cheese! I can use oat milk and it will be delicious, no doubt!

Alright Shay, I have a really strange question haha. When I had my grocery’s delivered for the week I had three bags of hostess mini powder sugar donuts delivered to me that I didn’t order. We can Probably eat 1 bag but I’m not sure how to use up the other 2. Do you think I could use them as bread in a breakfast casserole? Or do you have a better idea? hahahahaha

Um, that is genius! You totally could break them up and use them as a base layer in a bread pudding or breakfast casserole. DELICIOUS!
