Tips:

  • For a crispier tater tot cup, use frozen tater tots and cook them in a preheated oven at 400°F for 15-20 minutes before filling them.
  • If you don't have a muffin tin, you can use a regular baking sheet. Just make sure to grease the sheet well so the tater tots don't stick.
  • You can use any type of cheese you like in this recipe. Cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan are all popular choices.
  • If you want a richer flavor, add some cooked bacon, sausage, or vegetables to the egg mixture.
  • To make the cups ahead of time, cook the tater tots and eggs according to the recipe. Then, let them cool completely and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat the cups in a preheated oven at 350°F for 15-20 minutes.

Conclusion:

Tater tot cups with cheese and eggs are a quick and easy breakfast, lunch, or dinner option. They're also a great way to use up leftover tater tots and eggs. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
