A delightful twist on the classic tater tot side dish, enhanced with creamy cheese, crispy bacon, and fresh herbs.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and arrange the frozen tater tots in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Ensure the tater tots are evenly spaced for uniform crispiness.
Bake the tater tots in the oven for about 20 minutes or until golden and crispy.
Flip the tots halfway through baking for even browning.
Transfer the baked tater tots to a casserole dish, spreading them out evenly.
Use a spatula to avoid breaking the tots.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the tater tots.
For a cheesier dish, add an extra layer of cheese.
Top the cheese with the crumbled bacon and return the dish to the oven.
Ensure the bacon is evenly distributed for consistent flavor.
Bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Keep an eye on the cheese to prevent over-browning.
Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped green onions.
Add the green onions just before serving for a fresh touch.
Serve the dish warm with sour cream on the side for dipping.
You can also serve with ketchup or hot sauce for added flavor.
