You get The Cluckin’ Tater — a cheap, easy and seriously comforting little creation that works for breakfast, brunch or my personal favorite: BRINNER.

🍳 Directions
- Prepare or reheat one Meesh’s Tater Cake until hot and crispy.
- Place a slice of cheese directly on top of the hot tater cake.
- Allow the cheese to soften and get nice and melty.
- Cook one egg over-medium so the white is set while the yolk stays soft and delicious.
- Place the over-medium egg directly on top of the melted cheese.
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper if desired.
- Grab a fork, break that yolk and let it run over the whole thing.
✨ Make It Your Own
The original is ridiculously simple, but this is definitely one you can play with.
- Use cheddar, American, pepper jack or whatever cheese you have.
- Add crumbled bacon or sausage.
- Drizzle homemade gravy over the whole stack.
- Add hot sauce for a little kick.
- Stack two tater cakes if one just isn’t enough.
- Add green onions or extra shredded cheese on top.
☕ Meesh Says
This is what happens when I look at a perfectly good tater cake and think, “Hmmmm… what else can I put on that?”
Crispy potato. Melty cheese. Runny egg. Breakfast, brunch, brinner — I don’t care what time it is.
