Loaded Totchos

Loaded Totchos Recipe

This sensational spud riff on nachos is an hommage to party food lovers everywhere. Loaded with toppings and drizzled with a hot cheese dip, these totchos are ready to rock and roll right onto your plate.  This dish has all of the goodness of trashy, delicious bar nachos but are made with potato tots for a warm comfort food addition. Fresh jalapeno slices and cool avocado round out this dish, leaving the end impression and flavor as simply drool-inducing.

Taco-Tot Casserole Recipe

Tex-Mex meets tater tots in this easy, inexpensive, and all-around comforting one-dish dinner. Our spicy twist on the classic tater tot casserole consists of a succulent ground beef filling topped with crispy tater tots, and finished with a drizzle of an addictively spicy and tangy sour cream sauce.

Bacon Tots

Bacon Tots Recipe

OK, so this isn't technically a tater tot recipe. However, it IS a recipe for bacon tots—which is arguably more exciting. “Tots” refers to the shape of the bacon and to how it’s cooked. Tater tots are hunks of deep-fried potatoes.

Quiche With Tater Tot Crust

Credit: PHOTO BY DANIEL AGEE

Quiche With Tater Tot Crust Recipe

This quiche starts out respectably, as most quiche do: eggs, mushrooms, leeks, Gruyère. But then the filling gets ladled into a crispy crust made of salty tots. After a quick trip in the oven, the end result is like the most well-blended riff on eggs and potatoes you’ve ever had. And what could be better than that?

Vegan Buffalo Tofu Tot Skillet Recipe

This fantastic tater tot dish is slathered in some delicious meatless toppings making this one vegan dish that packs a powerful flavor punch. Reminicient of totchos, this skillet dish is a comfort food item to be reckoned with. This is a big skillet with enough to serve a lot of people alongside your favorite tailgating or appetizer dishes. This dish features a layer of homemade buffalo sauce as well as a rich and creamy dairy-free avocado ranch.

Tater Tot Tartiflette

This fun taste on a French Alps recipe is anything but boring. Let’s be very clear, this is a different beast than the original. Really, it's just an excuse for cheese and indulgence. And we're OK with that.

Eggs Benedict Totchos

Eggs Benedict Totchos Recipe

What are totchos? Totchos are the divine combination between cheese-drenched nachos and crispy tater tots. I feel like not much more needs to be said here, but for the sake of making you drool: These tots are loaded with Canadian bacon and doused in a creamy hollandaise.

Peruvian Totchos with Ají Amarillo Crema Recipe

This fun twist on traditional nachos features potato tots instead of chips for a warm comfort food dish that takes on the role of an out-of-this-world delicious party platter. This dish features flavors reminiscent of Peruvian cuisine, such as cumin, avocado and the essential ají crema sauce, which can be made ahead of time.
