Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Prepare the Tater Tots
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Spread tater tots in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown, flipping halfway.
For extra crispiness, broil for 2-3 minutes, watching closely.
2. Cook the Breakfast Sausage
Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
Add sausage, breaking it into small crumbles.
Cook for 8-10 minutes until browned and cooked through.
Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
3. Make the Gravy
In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
Add flour, whisking continuously for 2 minutes to make a roux.
Gradually whisk in milk, bringing it to a gentle simmer.
Cook for 5 minutes until thickened.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Optional: Add a dash of cayenne pepper or a pinch of garlic powder.
4. Scramble the Eggs
Heat butter or oil in a separate pan over medium heat.
Whisk eggs with salt and pepper.
Pour into the pan and cook, stirring gently, for 3-4 minutes until just set.
5. Assemble the Breakfast Bowls
Divide tater tots between four bowls.
Top each with sausage and scrambled eggs.
Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
Pour warm gravy generously over each bowl.
Garnish with chopped green onions.
Enjoy this hearty and comforting breakfast favorite!
