Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Heat oil over medium-high in a 10-inch oven-safe skillet. Add the sausage and onion. Cook 8–10 min., breaking up the sausage with a wooden spoon, until sausage is browned and onions are softened. Remove from heat and transfer mixture to a medium bowl. Let cool 10 min.
Using the same skillet, arrange half of potato tots in a single layer. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Season with salt and pepper.
Stir together sausage mixture, 1 cup Vlaskaas and egg mixture. Pour over potato tots in skillet. Arrange remaining potato tots on top in a circular pattern. Sprinkle with reserved 1/2 cup of Beemster.
Bake 60 min., until eggs are set and top is golden. Garnish with the green onions.
TIP: Want to take this from breakfast to dinner? Swap out the breakfast sausage for any protein: hot Italian sausage, seasoned ground beef, pulled pork or rotisserie chicken.
