Nachos … with Tater Tots!
Do you love how cheesy this title is, tot-chos, rather than tater tot nachos? Yes I went there, I am cheesy.

The tot-chos are easy, ready in no time, and are perfect for parties of all kinds including Cinco de Mayo or game day parties. I know hungry fans would love digging into these. And this isn’t the healthiest or most well-balanced dinner idea, but on a night you’re craving some warm, cheesy, carby, comfort food and plan to curl up on the couch to catch up on your favorite shows, these are a perfect. No shame in admitting I have those nights.
