Ingredients
- tater tots - I prefer to use the tater tots rounds
- eggs
- cheddar cheese - Colby Jack would be good as well
- sausage - your favorite kind
- salt/pepper
Tater tots verses tater rounds
Tater tots can be used instead of tater rounds, however I prefer the rounds. What is the difference? The tater rounds are flatter and smaller so they fit in the cups better. Tater tots will certainly work, they will just be bigger and you will have more potato flavor.
How to make cheesy egg muffins
To make this freezer friendly breakfast recipe, be sure to grease the muffin tins well. Nobody wants to dig stuck potatoes on the bottom of the pan.
Mix the eggs, milk, cheese and sausage in a medium sized bowl then pour into the muffin tins over the tater tots. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until eggs are firm.
How to freeze and reheat the egg muffins
After the egg muffins have cooked and cooled, remove them from the pan.
A tip: to remove the cheesy egg muffins, use a knife to loosen them from the pan, then use a fork to lift them.
Place them in a large resealable plastic bag. Freeze for up to two months.
To reheat, pull a couple muffins out and place on a microwavable plate. Microwave for desired time to warm thoroughly.
