Universal Orlando Resort's Food and Beverage team has generously shared the recipe for Seuss Landing's iconic green egg and ham tots. Indulge in comfort food with a nostalgic twist – here's the breakdown for one serving. Although, I'd recommend quadrupling it because these flavors are absolutely irresistible:

Prep Time:10 minutes
Cook Time:25 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 cups frozen tater tots
  • 2 tbsp diced ham
  • ¼ cup white cheddar queso
  • 2 Green Eggs ...Oh, you don't have those? No worries. Simply scramble two regular eggs together. And here's what you need for the spinach pesto that'll give them that vibrant green color...

Spinach Pesto

  • 2 cups of spinach
  • ¼ cup of chopped italian parsley
  • 5 basil leaves
  • 2 tbsp of grated parmesan
  • ¾ cup of olive oil

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375℉.
  • Start by making the spinach pesto. Blend together spinach, parsley, basil leaves, parmesan, and olive oil until combined.
  • In a bowl, mix one tablespoon of spinach pesto with ½ cup of scrambled egg. Bake the egg mixture in a small dish for six minutes. Once done, fluff and set aside.
  • Cook tater tots according to package instructions, then place them on a paper-towel-lined plate to absorb excess grease.
  • Microwave queso in a bowl for 20 seconds.
  • Arrange tater tots in a tin or small oven-safe dish. Top with the warm green eggs and half of the ham. Bake at 375℉ for about 3 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and drizzle queso over the tots. Garnish with remaining ham.
  • Eat your heart to three sizes.
