Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tater Tots

    Preheat your oven according to the package instructions for the frozen tater tots. Spread the tater tots in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown and crispy, about 20-25 minutes.

  2. 2

    Make the Fontina Fondue

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream and grated fontina cheese. Stir continuously until the cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Loaded Tav Tots

    Once the tater tots are crispy, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter. Drizzle the fontina fondue over the tots. Top with crumbled bacon and sliced scallions.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your loaded tav tots!
