Now that I have freezer dinners and freezer lunches under control, it's time for some freezer breakfasts! This is a new one that I just put together last week. We love breakfast burritos and I was making a big batch of them and decided to try a few breakfast bowls while I was at it. I decided to change the ingredients from the burritos just a bit. I used shredded cheese instead of the con queso and I added sauteed onions and green and red peppers. I mixed the ingredients in a bowl before adding them to the freezer containers and then added the bacon garnish on top. Microwave uncovered for 2 minutes, straight from the freezer. They turned out really well!
Ingredients for 12 bowls:
1 - 20 ounce pkg. of tater tot rounds, baked until crispy (follow pkg. directions)
16 ounces of ground breakfast sausage, cooked and drained
1 dozen eggs, scrambled
1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese (frozen works better!)
1 onion, diced and sauteed
1 green pepper, diced and sauteed
1 red pepper, diced and sauteed
8 strips of bacon, cooked and crumbled
What is the serving size? How big are the bowls that you freeze these in?
ReplyDeleteThese are small containers, they each hold just over a cup. I freeze the individual servings right in these containers. They are the perfect amount for myself and my kids. My husband will soetimes eat two at a time.
ReplyDeleteOmg great idea for me I'm always rushed in the morning and my son loves breakfast bowls
ReplyDeleteHi, sorry if this posted twice I didn't see my comment.
ReplyDeletehow long will they last in the freezer? Also If you don't have bacon on hand can you use the fresh bacon bits in the bag? not the hard crumpled type.
I have used the real bacon bits in my breakfast bowls. They work very well.
