Chili Cheese Tots Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Tater Tots

   Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the tater tots package. Spread the frozen tater tots on a baking sheet and bake until golden and crispy, about 25-30 minutes.

2. 2

   Cook the Bacon

   In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove from the skillet and let drain on a paper towel. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.

3. 3

   Make the Chili

   In the same skillet, drain excess bacon fat, leaving about 1 tablespoon. Add the ground beef and cook until browned. Stir in chili powder, cumin, diced tomatoes, and kidney beans. Simmer for 10-15 minutes to combine flavors.

4. 4

   Assemble the Dish

   Once the tater tots are done, place them on a large serving platter. Pour the bacon chili mixture over the tater tots, then drizzle the HUB cheese sauce on top.

   Garnish and Serve

   Chop the green onions and sprinkle them over the dish along with crumbled bacon. Serve with a dollop of sour cream on the side.
