Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen tater tots
- 6–8 breakfast sausage links (or sliced sausage of your choice)
- 1 egg (or more—go wild!)
- Salt & pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, for garnish
- Optional: hot sauce or ketchup, for serving
Instructions
1️⃣ Bake the Tots
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Spread tater tots on a baking sheet and bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they’re crispy and golden. This is the crunchy base of your bowl—don’t skip the crisp!
2️⃣ Sizzle the Sausage
While the tots are doing their thing, pan-fry your sausages over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Slice into bite-sized pieces if needed.
3️⃣ Fry the Egg
In the same skillet (hello, flavor!), crack in an egg and cook it sunny-side up. Season with salt and pepper. You want that yolk runny and ready to drizzle!
4️⃣ Build Your Bowl
Pile those crispy tots into a bowl, top with sausage slices, and gently slide your fried egg on top. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley and an extra crack of black pepper.
5️⃣ Serve It Up
Drizzle with hot sauce for a fiery kick or serve with ketchup for that nostalgic diner feel. Either way, it’s breakfast magic.
Make It Yours
- Swap in chorizo, turkey sausage, or veggie sausage for a fun twist.
- Add sautéed peppers, onions, or cheese for extra flavor.
- Double up the eggs if you’re extra hungry!
