Ingredients:
- 1 lb breakfast sausage (pork or turkey)

- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup diced bell peppers (optional)

- Preheat your oven according to the package instructions for the tater tots.
- Spread the tater tots on a baking sheet and bake until golden and crispy, usually about 20-25 minutes.

- While the tater tots are baking, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the breakfast sausage, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.

- In another skillet, scramble the egg mixture over medium heat until cooked through and fluffy.
- Assemble the Breakfast Bowl:
- In serving bowls, layer the cooked tater tots, followed by the sausage mixture, scrambled eggs, and shredded cheddar cheese.
- If desired, pop the bowls in the microwave for a few seconds to melt the cheese.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Garnish with chopped green onions or parsley before serving. Enjoy your hearty breakfast bowl!
Tips:
- Feel free to customize the bowl with other toppings like avocado, salsa, or hot sauce.
- You can make this a meal prep option by cooking everything ahead of time and reheating portions during the week.
