- Total Time: 50 minutes
- Servings: Variable
Ingredients:
- 8-10 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 4-5 slices bacon
- 1 cup colby-monterey jack cheese, shredded
- 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
- 6 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 1 1/2 cups onions, diced
- 1/2 cup bell peppers, diced
- Butter, for greasing
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). This ensures that it’s ready to bake your omelet to perfection.
-
-
Prepare the Base: Take a casserole dish and arrange a layer of tater tots at the bottom. Drizzle a generous amount of butter over the tots, ensuring they are evenly coated.
-
Bake the Base: Place the prepared casserole dish in the preheated oven. Allow the tater tots to bake until they are golden brown and crispy, infusing them with rich, buttery flavor.
-
Cook the Bacon: While the tater tots are baking, cook the bacon until it’s nice and crispy. Once cooked, chop the bacon into bite-sized pieces, ready to add a savory touch to your omelet.
-
Prepare the Vegetables: If you’re opting to include onions, peppers, or mushrooms in your omelet, sautΓ© them in a frying pan with a splash of the rendered bacon grease. Cook them until they’re tender and flavorful, ready to enhance your dish.
-
Mix the Eggs: In a mixing bowl, beat together the eggs and milk until they are well combined. This creates a light and fluffy base for your omelet, ensuring each bite is packed with deliciousness.
-
Layer the Ingredients: Once the tater tots are golden and crispy, remove the casserole dish from the oven. If you’ve sautΓ©ed any vegetables, now’s the time to add them to the dish, spreading them evenly over the tater tots.
-
Pour the Egg Mixture: Carefully pour the beaten egg and milk mixture over the layered ingredients in the casserole dish. Ensure that the eggs are distributed evenly, binding the ingredients together as they bake.
-
Add the Bacon and Cheese: Sprinkle the chopped bacon evenly over the egg mixture, followed by a generous layer of shredded colby-monterey jack and cheddar cheese. These ingredients add a burst of flavor and gooey goodness to every bite.
-
Bake to Perfection: Return the loaded casserole dish to the oven and continue baking for an additional 30-40 minutes, or until the omelet is fully set and the cheese is melted and bubbly on top.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once done, remove the oven omelet from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. Slice it into generous portions and serve hot, savoring each mouthful of this comforting and satisfying dish.
