Belinda Beller's Breakfast

a cheap meal from my college days. It called, for the lack of a better name, Breakfast. Ingredients
1/2 bag of frozen tater crowns (like tater tots but cut into 1/4ths)
4 eggs scrambled with a bit of milk
1-2 slices of Tillamook* cheddar cheese (from 2lb block)
Ketchup (optional)

Utensils
1 Wok or skillet (wok's my fav because it holds more)
spatula
Dinner plate
Microwave
Fork or Spoon

Same temp as cooking eggs (med to med-high, 5-6)

Turn on stove, dump taters into wok, cook until thawed.
When thawed, start cutting up taters with spatula.
When taters are browned, pour eggs into taters and mix until well blended and cooked to own liking.
Place on plate
Slice cheese into thin slices and place on top of mixture.
Microwave 30-45 seconds or until cheese is melted on top.
Pour ketchup over mixture and eat with fork or spoon.

Makes a mound of food that a starving college student would consume in one minute or would serve 2-3 people.

*Tillamook Cheese is the closest creamery. So use whatever cheese is the freshest.
