Ingredients
Scale
- 32 oz frozen tater tots
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 lb ground beef or turkey (cooked and seasoned)
- 1 can (15 oz) black beans (rinsed and drained)
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup jalapeños (fresh or pickled)
- 1 cup salsa or pico de gallo
- 1/4 cup green onions (chopped)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread frozen tater tots in an even layer. Bake for about 25 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
- While the tater tots are baking, cook the ground beef or turkey in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain excess fat and season with taco seasoning.
- In a large baking dish, layer half of the baked tater tots as the base. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese on top so it melts easily.
- Evenly distribute the seasoned meat over the cheese layer followed by black beans and jalapeños.
- Add another layer of tater tots and top with remaining cheese. Return to the oven for about 10 minutes until bubbly.
- Remove from oven and add desired toppings like salsa, sour cream, and green onions before serving warm.
