For the Sausage Gravy:

  • 1/2 lb ground breakfast sausage
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper (or to taste)
  • Salt to taste

For the Eggs:

Additional Toppings:

Instructions

Prepare the Tater Tots:

  1. Bake the Tater Tots:
    • Preheat your oven and bake the tater tots according to package instructions until golden and crispy. Sprinkle with salt, if desired.

Make the Sausage Gravy:
2. Cook the Sausage:

  • In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and crumbled. Remove the cooked sausage with a slotted spoon, leaving the grease in the pan.
  1. Make the Roux:
    • Add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, stir in the flour and cook for 1–2 minutes, whisking constantly, to form a roux.
  2. Add the Milk:
    • Gradually whisk in the milk, cooking until the gravy thickens. Stir in the cooked sausage and season with black pepper and salt. Keep warm.

Cook the Eggs:
5. Scramble the Eggs:

  • In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk or cream, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Melt butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the eggs and cook gently, stirring frequently, until fluffy and just set.

Assemble the Bowls:
6. Layer the Ingredients:

  • Divide the crispy tater tots among bowls. Top with scrambled eggs, a generous scoop of sausage gravy, and shredded cheddar cheese.
  1. Garnish and Serve:
    • Garnish with chopped green onions and a drizzle of hot sauce, if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, mix in sautéed peppers or onions with the eggs.
  • Make it vegetarian by substituting sausage with plant-based crumbles or mushrooms.
  • Store leftovers separately and reheat before assembling.
