Variations on the theme of Tater Tots Part 2 The fritatta
What a shock, once again I woke up early and couldn't get back to sleep.
I decided to make a breakfast frittata with one of my new favorite ingredients Tater tots. There is just something about these puffs of potato that works for me. Frittatas are a wonderful way to use ingredients right from your fridge.
All of you have made them, it's really nothing new but I liked the ingredients I used so I will share my combo with you.
I started off baking about two cups of tater tots until they were crispy.
While they cook I diced a small red pepper and a small onion.
I drained a 15.5 ounce can of black beans and dried them off. You will only need 1/2 can so save the other half to combine with fresh corn and some salsa to make mexican chicken.
I beat 6 eggs and 1/4 cup half and half together.
Once the tater tots are crispy, I layered the bottom of a greased 8 x 8 square baking dish.
I added the diced veggies, at least a cup of cheddar and the black beans.
I then added the egg mixture and baked until the eggs were cooked all the way through. (center firm) It takes about 45 minutes at 350.
The reason I like to make Frittatas is because they are very forgiving.
