Ingredients:

  • 1 package smoked sausage (sliced into thick diagonal pieces)
  • 3-4 cups frozen tater tots
  • 4-6 eggs
  • 1-1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1-2 tbsp oil
  • Salt
  • Black pepper
  • Garlic salt
  • Paprika

 

Optional Toppings

  • Diced tomatoes
  • Avocado slices
  • Green onions
  • Hot sauce or sour cream

 

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. Add tater tots and sliced sausage to the pan. Drizzle with oil and season with salt, pepper, garlic salt, and paprika. Toss to coat evenly.
  3. Spread everything into a single layer and bake for 15 minutes, until the tots are golden and the sausage is lightly browned.
  4. Remove from the oven and create small open spaces between the tots. Crack eggs directly onto the pan, season lightly and sprinkle shredded cheese over everything.
  5. Return to the oven and bake for 5-8 minutes, depending on how you like your eggs.
  6. Optional: Broil for 1-2 minutes for extra crispiness and melted cheese.
  7. Top with diced tomatoes, avocado, or your favorite toppings and serve warm.
