Breakfast Tots

My favorite food is tater tots. FAVORITE. Crispy, recently fried, and served with ranch is my usual order. Highly recommend if you haven’t tried. And tater tots are just a quick skip away from hash browns which is when I realized BREAKFAST TOTS!

Breakfast for dinner, football game snacks, actual breakfast, late night snacks.

I like these to be simple with just the basics. But what do you like with your breakfast scramble? Onions? Add them! Green bell pepper? Add it! You do you - but simple is pretty epic.

Breakfast Tots

1 package tater tots

6 strips of bacon

4 eggs, scrambled

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

hot sauce

STEP 1

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.

Place bacon in a cold skillet and begin cooking over low until crispy.

STEP 2

Pour out tater tots on a baking sheet in one even layer. Don’t over crowd the pan! Use two if you need to! Pop into the oven and bake about 20 minutes until crispy. If they aren’t crispy on the edges, don’t pull them out.

STEP 3

Scramble those eggs!

STEP 4

Pour out the crispy tots on a plate and top with half of the cheese. Top with scrambled eggs and crumble up the bacon. Top with remaining cheese.

STEP 5

Turn on the broiler and pop the tots in - it only takes two minutes to get the cheese crispy on top. Pull out from the oven (carefully! the plate is hot) and serve with hot sauce.


Espresso Martini

I love these - but only if it’s decaf. Some of us are just too old for caffeine + booze in the same moment.
