Creating this Cracked Out Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole is simple and straightforward. Follow these steps to prepare your dish:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
2. Cook the turkey bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Once cooked, chop the bacon into bite-sized pieces.
3. Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the tater tots, chopped bacon, and shredded cheddar cheese. Transfer this mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
4. Prepare the egg mixture: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, Ranch seasoning mix, and milk until well combined.
5. Pour the egg mixture over the tater tot mixture in the baking dish, ensuring all ingredients are evenly coated.
6. Bake the casserole: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the top is golden brown.
7. Rest and serve: Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Pro tip: If you want to prepare this dish in advance, you can cover and refrigerate it after step 5, then bake it when you’re ready to enjoy a fresh and hot casserole.
