TATER TOTS

Steps:

• Cook the potatoes in boiling water until tender. Then process them using a ricer or food mill OR mash them with a fork for a more lumpy texture.
• Add the flour, egg, some seasoned salt and pepper and combine.
• Form into balls, and then slightly flatten into discs. Let them cool completely.
• Heat some canola oil in a cast-iron skillet and fry the cooled tots until golden. Drain on a paper towel.
• You can freeze the tots after frying. Remove from the freezer when you need them and reheat in a 400 degree F oven for 10 to 12 minutes.

MINI BREAKFAST OMELETS (EGG MUFFINS WITH A TATER TOT CRUST)

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and generously grease a standard size muffin pan.
• Place the tater tots in the microwave for a few minutes or until they are soft enough to smash, then place 3 in each muffin cup.
• Smash them with the bottom of a small cup, and then place them in the oven for 10 minutes.
• Remove the tots from the oven and lower the temperature to 350 degrees.
• Evenly distribute your meat and veggies into each cup. I used about 6 frozen sausage links that I microwaved and diced ahead of time, as well as pre-diced bell pepper that I found in the produce section at my local grocery store.
• Scramble the eggs, milk and seasoning together and then pour the mixture evenly into each cup. I was able to fill each cup up about 90% with 10 eggs. I wouldn't make them any fuller than that as they do expand in the oven.
• Sprinkle the top with shredded cheese and bake for 20 minutes, or until the egg is cooked through.

OMELET CUPS

Steps:

• Thaw potato nuggets according to individual package instructions.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin very well.
• Push 3 potato nuggets into each of the prepared muffin cups to act as a crust.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place even amounts of sausage, Cheddar cheese, and bell pepper into the omelet cups. Do not overfill. Whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper together in a bowl and pour egg mixture into each muffin tin, filling each to the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until eggs are set, 30 to 35 minutes.

TATER TOTS

Steps:

• Scrub potatoes and cut into large chunks. Place in a medium pot covered with cold water and bring to a boil. Parboil potatoes until tender, drain them and let them cool slightly. Grate potatoes in a food processor, then squeeze out excess liquid.
• Place potatoes in a large bowl and use a light hand to mix with cornstarch, salt, pepper and garlic powder.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Meanwhile, add canola oil to a depth of 1/2 inch in a heavy-bottomed skillet set over medium heat.
• When oil is hot, form thumb-size balls of the potato mixture and fry until golden, about 15 seconds per side.
• Drain on paper towels, and let tots cool. Place in a single layer on a baking sheet, transfer to oven and bake until crisp, about 10 to 20 minutes, turning once.
