Crispy, golden tater tots threaded on skewers and topped with melty cheese, creamy sour cream, fresh veggies, and bold flavor—perfect for parties, snacks, or fun family dinners.

Ingredients

  • Frozen Tater Tots: 1 bag (about 32 oz), the crispy canvas that holds it all together.
  • Shredded Cheddar Cheese: 1 cup, sharp and melty for that gooey layer.
  • Sour Cream: ½ cup, adds tang and creaminess as a finishing drizzle.
  • Green Onions: 3 stalks, finely sliced for a pop of color and fresh bite.
  • Cherry Tomatoes: ½ cup, halved for juicy, sweet-tart contrast.
  • Avocado: 1 ripe, diced for creamy richness.
  • Salt and Black Pepper: To taste, for balancing flavors.
  • Paprika (optional): ½ teaspoon, for smoky depth.
  • Cooking Spray or Olive Oil: For a crisp, golden bake.

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Equipment: Set your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a small bowl, mix shredded cheese, sliced green onions, paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  3. Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Spray your lined baking sheet with cooking spray or a light drizzle of olive oil.
  4. Assemble the Dish: Thread tater tots onto skewers, about 5–6 per skewer. Place them on the baking sheet and sprinkle the cheese mixture generously over each one.
  5. Cook to Perfection: Bake for 15–20 minutes until the tots are golden and the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
  6. Finishing Touches: Remove from oven and top with halved cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, and a drizzle of sour cream.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Serve warm with napkins handy. Trust me, you’re going to love this.

Notes

  • Use parchment paper for easier cleanup and even baking.
  • For extra crispness, par-bake the tots before skewering.
  • Only add cold toppings like avocado and sour cream after baking.
  • Experiment with different cheeses or toppings to make it your own.
