Description

A delightful comfort food that combines crispy tater tots with savory chili, topped with gooey cheese.


Ingredients

  • 1 bag of frozen tater tots
  • 2 cans of chili (with or without beans)
  • 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup of sour cream
  • 1/2 cup of chopped green onions


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large baking dish, spread the frozen tater tots evenly across the bottom.
  3. Pour the chili over the tater tots, making sure it’s evenly distributed.
  4. Generously sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
  7. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and sprinkle with chopped green onions for added flavor and color.

Notes

For added crunch, consider layering crushed tortilla chips on top before baking. Use different types of cheese for a twist, and add jalapeños for spice.
