Sometimes I think the fact that Tater Tots exist—and are vegan—proves there is a god. But honestly, when you combine them with the sausage-tofu mixture to make this savory casserole, it borders on divine. This is also a great option for brunch: prep the night before and bake in the morning. Easy and tasty!

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly oil a 9" × 13" baking dish.
2. In a medium sauté pan over medium-high heat, cook sausage in oil, breaking it up into bite-sized pieces. Cook until browned.
3. In a blender, process tofu until very smooth. Add nutritional yeast, chives, salt, pepper, and garlic powder, blending until incorporated.
4. Pour blended mixture into prepared baking dish. Add sausage and mix just to distribute sausage evenly.
5. Arrange Tater Tots on top of tofu mixture.
6. Bake 45–50 minutes or until potatoes are lightly browned. Tofu will continue to firm as it cools, about 30 minutes.
