Units
Scale
Tater Tots
- 32 oz Tater Tots
Cheddar Cheese
- 2 cups Cheddar Cheese, shredded
Bacon Bits
- 1 cup Bacon Bits
Green Onions
- 1/2 cup Green Onions, chopped
Sour Cream
- 1 cup Sour Cream
Instructions
- Prepare the Tater Tots: Preheat your oven according to the packaging instructions for the tater tots. Spread them evenly on a baking sheet and cook until golden brown and crispy.
- Assemble the Skewers: Once the tater tots are done, let them cool slightly before skewering them on wooden or metal sticks. Alternate with cheese and bacon bits as you build each skewer.
- Melt the Cheese: Return the skewers to the oven for a few minutes to allow the cheese to melt thoroughly over the tater tots and bacon. This makes every bite extra cheesy!
- Top with Garnishes: Take the skewers out and let your creativity flow by adding a sprinkle of green onions and a drizzle of sour cream or your favorite sauce for an extra flavor boost.
Notes
- Use Small Skewers: Opt for shorter skewers for bite-sized servings that are easier to handle.
- Pre-Cook Ingredients: If using any raw toppings, like vegetables, lightly cook them for better texture and flavor.
- Keep Tots Hot: Serve the skewers immediately after garnishing to keep the tater tots crispy.
- Experiment with Drizzles: Try using ranch dressing, spicy aioli, or cheese sauce as delicious dipping options on the side.
- Try Different Cheeses: Don’t hesitate to mix different kinds of cheese, such as pepper jack or gouda, for a unique flavor profile.
