Whether you're looking for a fun, easy dinner, a tasty appetizer or an indulgent weekend breakfast, you really can't go wrong with crispy, tender tater tots.
Whether you want to make them from scratch (you can find a traditional tot recipe here) or grab that bag you keep in the back of your freezer and load them up, I say go for it!
You can make your tots out of broccoli, load them up like nachos or pile them inside a grilled cheese sandwich. It's all up to you!
1. Tater Tot Breakfast Nachos
Every breakfast should include fried potatoes, two different kinds of cheese, spicy fresh jalapenos and a couple of fried eggs! Feel free to use any of your favorite breakfast meats, like crumbled sausage, chopped bacon or chorizo, for a little extra protein.
2. Mac And Cheese Tater Tot Casserole
It's a simple but revolutionary idea: Make your favorite kind of classic mac and cheese (maybe mix in some bacon if you're feeling wild?) and top it with crunchy tots and smother them with cheese. If you're in a dangerous mood, you can even top your mac with cheese-filled tots and really live it up.
