Black pepper, to taste
1 tbsp olive oil
Sour cream or salsa, optional for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven according to the tater tot package instructions, usually to 425°F (220°C).
- Spread frozen tater tots in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
- While the tots cook, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Whisk the eggs with salt and pepper, then pour into the skillet.
- Scramble the eggs until fully cooked but still soft.

- Return to the oven briefly if needed to melt the cheese.
- Top with sour cream or salsa and serve warm.
Notes
Air fryer tater tots are extra crispy if preferred.
Swap cheddar with pepper jack or mozzarella for variation.
Skip sausage and add vegetables for a meat-free version.
Reheat in the oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness.
Add avocado or hot sauce for extra flavor.
