Tater Tot Breakfast Bowl with Sausage Gravy
A delightful breakfast bowl featuring crispy tater tots, rich sausage gravy, topped with eggs, cheese, and green onions.
Ingredients
For the Tater Tot Bowl
- 4 cups frozen tater tots
- 1 pound beef sausage
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 large eggs fried or scrambled
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 green onions sliced
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional, for heat
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven according to the package instructions for the tater tots. Spread them out in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake until crispy and golden brown.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the beef sausage, breaking it up as it cooks until completely brown, about 5-7 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to low and toss in the butter to melt. Sprinkle the flour over the sausage, stirring well to coat.
- Slowly pour in the milk while stirring constantly to avoid lumps, continuing to stir until the gravy thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
- In a separate pan, cook the eggs to your liking—either fried with a runny yolk or scrambled.
Assembly
- Divide the crispy tater tots into serving dishes. Spoon the hot sausage gravy over the tater tots.
- Add a cooked egg on top of each bowl, and sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese and sliced green onions.
- For a bit of heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes.
Serving
- Enjoy your Tater Tot Breakfast Bowl while everything is hot and fresh!
Notes
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Keep components separate for maintaining texture. Reheat gently when ready to enjoy again.
