Say hello to your new favorite breakfast obsession—Bacon Egg & Cheese Breakfast Tots! We’ve taken the classic breakfast trio and transformed it into a bite-sized, crispy, golden nugget of morning joy that’s healthy enough to keep your conscience clean but indulgent enough to satisfy those comfort cravings.

Why Tots?

Because tots = tots. Tiny, crunchy, and packed with flavor. Plus, potatoes sneak in a healthy dose of potassium and fiber, especially when you make ’em with a bit of sweet potato or add in some nutrient-dense veggies. These tots are basically your breakfast taking a fun shortcut to deliciousville.

The Ingredients Breakdown

Bacon: We keep it real by using nitrate-free, reduced-sodium center cut bacon. Crisp it up for that smoky, salty punch.
Egg: The star protein of our show.
Cheese: Melty gooey cheesy goodness.
Tots: Crispy, crunchy, and a popable delight.

Why You’ll Love These

Protein-packed: Keeps you full and fueled way past brunch.
Customizable: Swap cheese types, add herbs, or sneak in spinach or peppers.
Guilt-free indulgence: Baked, not fried, and made with wholesome ingredients.
Kid-approved: Small, fun, and super tasty—win-win.

Serve It Up

Try these tots with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a side of fresh fruit. Feeling fancy? Drizzle with a little sriracha mayo, creamy jalapeño, or avocado crema for that extra umami kick.

Breakfast just got a serious upgrade. Crunchy, cheesy, smoky, and eggy all at once—Bacon Egg & Cheese Breakfast Tots are here to shake up your morning routine. So grab your skillet, channel your inner tot tamer, and go make some magic. Your taste buds will thank you.
