Ingredients

Tater Tots

  • 1 pound frozen tater tots

Eggs and Protein

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon (crumbled) or sausage (cooked and crumbled)

Vegetables and Cheese

  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup green onions (chopped)
  • 1/4 cup diced bell peppers (optional)

Seasonings and Other

  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking eggs)
  • Sour cream or salsa (for serving, optional)

Instructions

  1. Cook the Tater Tots: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C), or follow the package instructions. Spread the frozen tater tots evenly on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy, flipping them halfway through to cook evenly on both sides.
  2. Cook the Eggs: While the tater tots bake, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into a bowl, season with salt and pepper, and whisk until smooth. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and scramble, stirring frequently until fully cooked and fluffy.
  3. Assemble the Bowl: In a large serving bowl, layer the baked tater tots first, then top with the scrambled eggs. Sprinkle on the crumbled bacon or sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, diced bell peppers (if using), and chopped green onions. If you prefer melted cheese, place the assembled bowl into the oven for a few minutes until the cheese softens and becomes gooey.
  4. Serve: Add optional sour cream or salsa on top for extra flavor. Serve the breakfast bowl warm and enjoy a delicious, filling meal.

Notes

  • You can substitute the bacon or sausage with your preferred breakfast meat or keep it vegetarian by increasing the vegetables.
  • To save time, use pre-cooked or leftover bacon or sausage.
  • Adjust seasoning according to taste, adding spices like paprika or garlic powder for extra flavor.
  • The bell peppers are optional but add color and a fresh, sweet crunch.
  • For a more indulgent dish, add avocado slices or hot sauce as toppings.
