Notes
Substitute cheddar with Monterey Jack or mozzarella for a different flavor. Add cooked bacon sausage or sautéed vegetables for extra protein or variety. Serve with a simple green salad or salsa on the side. For a crisper bottom, briefly bake the tater tots alone for 10 minutes before adding other ingredients.
