Tater Tot Breakfast Muffins

You know me.  I'm always looking for new ways to make breakfast the night before so I can throw it in the oven while we are getting ready to face the day.  On this particular early Sunday morning, my husband and I were chatting over a cup of coffee.  Our littlest was running around playing with her toys in the living room and the older two were still sleeping.

All of that to say - this was not one of those amazing mornings where I had something ready to just throw in the oven.  But! It was on this morning that this recipe came together in my mind.  I made it after dinner and threw it in the oven the following morning.  I love when we can start a workday with a hot breakfast.  

Let's Get Crafty!

Preheat oven to 350 (if you are making them right away)

Spray some non-stick spray into each muffin tin

Layer it up:
(1)  3-4 tater tots per cupcake muffin hole (We were using us tater tots from the night before, so I crumbled ours up to cover the bottom of each tin.)
(2)  Add in the meat of your choice (We had some diced ham that I was wanting to use up.  You might be catching a theme here. ;) 
(3)  Add whatever toppings suit your fancy.  We did cheese on most and I added a few green chiles to a few.

(4)  Then add your eggs.  We did 12 eggs with some half and half whisked together with some pepper.

Then I put it in the fridge to hang out for the night.  I pulled it out of the fridge while preheating the oven.

Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes.  Our time landed right in the middle.

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you have a great day.
