1/2 cup milk
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
20 frozen potato rounds (tater tots)

INSTRUCTIONS
Set Instant Pot to saute. Add the sausage and cook until no longer pink. Add olive oil (only if pot is too dry) and add peppers and mushrooms and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until softened. Pour contents into a strainer and allow grease to drain. Meanwhile, rinse out pot.
Return pot to pressure cooker and add 1 1/2 cups water to pot. Coat a round 6-inch pan with cooking spray. Pour the sausage mixture into the pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, cream of mushroom soup, milk and 1/2 cup of the cheddar cheese. Pour the mixture over the sausage mixture in the pan.
