Ingredients

Tater tots (quantity as needed for serving)

15 eggs, scrambled

Double batch sausage gravy

Salt and pepper, to taste

Taco cheese blend, for topping

Optional: Red pepper flakes, to taste

Optional: Cayenne powder, to taste

Optional: Fresh Mexican restaurant-style salsa, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Bake tater tots according to package instructions for about 30 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
  2. While the tater tots bake, prepare sausage gravy. Add pepper flakes and cayenne powder if you want extra heat.
  3. In a skillet, scramble the eggs with salt and pepper until cooked through but still moist.
  4. Assemble each breakfast bowl by adding a layer of crispy tater tots at the bottom.
  5. Top the tater tots with scrambled eggs.
  6. Pour sausage gravy generously over the eggs.
  7. Sprinkle taco cheese blend on top.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian version, replace sausage gravy with mushroom gravy.
  • Use hash browns instead of tater tots for a different texture.
  • Add sautéed onions, peppers, or spinach for extra vegetables.
  • Cheddar, Monterey Jack, or pepper jack can replace taco cheese blend.
  • Store leftovers in separate containers to maintain texture when reheating.
