Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole Recipe (Vegan Edition)
A crispy, creamy vegan breakfast casserole made with tater tots, plant-based cheese, and veggies — ideal for lazy mornings or brunch drama.
Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Grease the baking dish with olive oil like you mean it.
- In a pan, sauté onion and bell pepper until soft — about 4 minutes. Add spinach and cook for another minute.
- In a bowl, whisk chickpea flour, almond milk, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, black salt, pepper, and regular salt.
- Spread the cooked veggies evenly in the baking dish.
- Pour the chickpea mixture over them. Don’t panic if it looks too thin — it thickens like your patience by the end.
- Arrange tater tots neatly on top (or chaotically, we’re not judging).
- Sprinkle plant-based cheese generously — because moderation is for salads.
- Bake for 35 minutes until golden, crispy, and bubbly.
- Let it rest for 5 minutes before cutting — or risk molten tot-lava on your tongue.
