Easy Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole Recipe

With school officially back in session, I remember all too well the pressures of college life.

You’ve gotta juggle your academic life, your budding social life, extracurricular activities (so you can land that awesome job after graduation) and your finances…. Add to that list, managing your health and wellness, and making sure you can still fit into the same clothes at the end of the semester, and you’re pretty much swamped.

So, here’s a budget-friendly hearty tater tot breakfast casserole recipe to help you start your day. It has minimal ingredients and relatively minimal cooking – just chop, saute and bake!

Always remember to customize recipes so they compliment YOUR fitness goals. And this recipe is all about customization.

Remember:

1. For the protein you have both turkey and eggs. You can eat more or less turkey to boost the amount of protein in each individual serving, or you can use as many whole eggs or egg whites as you wish.
2. Choose between veggie tots (cauliflower tots) or (sweet) potato tots.  Both are delicious and nutritious, yet have very different macronutrient profiles. For a lower carbohydrate – yet filling – option, choose the veggie tots.  For a more hearty option, choose the sweet potato tots, perfect as well for a post-workout (breakfast) meal.

The approximate cost of this tater tot breakfast casserole meal prep recipe for 4 – 5 servings (and more depending on your individual serving size) is less than $15.
