Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup tater tots
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 strips cooked bacon (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons green onions (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon ketchup or hot sauce (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven or air fryer to 425°F (220°C) and cook the tater tots according to the package instructions until crispy. Set them aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter, swirling it around to coat the pan evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Let the eggs cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes, until the edges begin to set.
Distribute the cooked tater tots evenly across the surface of the eggs, pressing them gently into the mixture.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese, cooked bacon, and green onions evenly over the tater tots.
Cover the skillet with a lid and let the omelet cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted.
Carefully fold one side of the omelet over the other using a spatula, or slide it out of the skillet onto a plate folded in half.
Garnish with additional green onions if desired, and serve hot with ketchup or hot sauce on the side.
