Mama Dick's Breakfast Bowl Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Biscuits

   If using pre-made biscuits, bake according to package instructions. For homemade, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C), mix together 2 cups of flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt and butter. Roll out and cut into circles, then bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

2. 2

   Cook the Bacon

   In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove from the skillet and let them drain on a paper towel.

3. 3

   Prepare the Tater Tots

   In the same skillet with the leftover bacon grease, add the frozen tater tots and cook according to package instructions, typically around 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until golden and crispy.

4. 4

   Make the Sausage Jalapeno Gravy

   In a separate saucepan, cook the breakfast sausage over medium heat until browned. Add the diced jalapeños and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Sprinkle flour over the sausage and mix well. Slowly stir in the milk, whisking constantly until the mixture thickens (about 5 minutes). Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. 5

   Scramble the Eggs

   In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and pepper. In a non-stick skillet, melt a little butter over medium heat, then pour in the egg mixture. Stir gently until the eggs are just set but still creamy (around 3-5 minutes).

6. 6

   Assemble the Bowl

   On a plate, place the baked biscuit as the base. Top with scrambled eggs, followed by the crispy tater tots. Pour the sausage jalapeño gravy over the top and garnish with crumbled bacon.
