Description

A hearty tater tot casserole combining chili, cheddar cheese, and crispy tots — perfect for busy weeknights and potlucks.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bag of frozen tater tots
  • 2 cans of chili (with or without beans)
  • 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup of sour cream
  • 1/2 cup of chopped green onions

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Spread the frozen tater tots evenly across the bottom of a large baking dish.
  3. Pour the chili over the tater tots, spreading it so the tots are well covered.
  4. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the chili.
  5. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the tots are heated through.
  6. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
  7. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and sprinkle with chopped green onions.

Notes

For a spicier casserole, swap sharp cheddar for pepper jack. Can prepare in advance and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking.
