Ingredients

• Butter 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 1/2 onion, diced
• 1 (24 oz.) bag frozen tater tots (about 5 1/2 cups)
• 8 eggs
• 1 cup milk OR half-and-half
• salt and ground black pepper
• 4 oz. sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 4 oz. pepper jack cheese, shredded
• 2 cups chopped ham

Directions

1. Generously coat a 9 × 13-inch baking dish or similar capacity baking dish with butter.
2. In a skillet over medium heat, melt enough butter to coat. Add bell pepper and onion and cook until vegetables begin to soften; set aside.
3. Arrange half of the tater tots in the bottom of the prepared pan.
4. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Season with salt and pepper. Pour mixture over tater tots. Top egg mixture with the bell pepper and onion, half of the cheeses and all of the ham. Top with the remaining tater tots, then remaining cheese. (Casserole can be covered with foil and refrigerated overnight at this point.)
5. Bake casserole at 350 degrees for 1 hour, or until eggs are set and cheese is golden brown, if cheese browns too quickly, tent casserole with foil.
