This is just so simple and versatile. You can put anything in it you like. Make more to go with it or not. DH and I like it just this way because it can be filling depending on what you put in it. Seasonings are to your taste. I change them all the time depending on what I add to these. The more servings you need, you can add extra of any of the ingredients. This is also a budget stretcher. Cooking time does not include adding more than ingredients listed. If you use meat, be sure to precook it first and drain.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons olive oil
12 tater tots
6 eggs, beaten
1/8 cup onion, finely chopped

Directions:
1. Cooking the starter:.
2. Heat skillet with olive oil till hot.
