What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Food Junkie Favorites: OMG Nachos! The first time I heard about putting tator tots on nachos, I thought, “What’s up with that?”. Curiosity got the better of me. So I tried it and OMG Nachos were born! If you like cheese and potatoes, you’re going to love, love, love this! I pulled it all together in an iron skillet by arranging one layer of corn tortilla chips on the bottom and then around the edge of the pan to form a bowl. Next, I filled it with all the goodies. Fifteen minutes later I was wiping my chin from the incredible taste explosion in my mouth. OMG, you gotta try it.
OMG NACHOS
Ingredients:
1/2 bag of tator tots
Corn tortilla chips, café style
1/2 cup black beans, drained
2 tomatoes, diced
1/2 cup jalapeño slices
3 green onions, snipped
8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese
4 ounces Havarti cheese
Salsa to taste
Guacamole to taste
Sour cream to taste
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 425°. Place tator tots on a baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes; turn over and bake 10 minutes longer. Remove from oven and set aside. In an iron skillet, place one layer of corn tortilla chips on the bottom of the skillet and then arrange chips around the edge of the pan to form a bowl. Layer remaining ingredients, including tator tots, alternating with cheese. Bake 15 minutes. Remove from oven and dig in. Top with salsa, guacamole, and sour cream to taste.

O? I’d like you to meet MG!
The tater tots was a GREAT audible. And yes, I use football parlance since we ARE in football season and this is a perfect game day dish.
The cheddar and Havarti is just brilliant.

Thanks! I seldom buy tator tots (too much temptation), but I always order them in a restaurant. Crazy, huh?!?!

Nope, not crazy. It’s something I would do. It’s okay to indulge but why keep the stuff around the house? I get it.

All the ingredients are so good that I have a hard time making nachos, instead of just scarfing the individual items!

Keep the tots or switch to french fries, no chips, add chicken = Irish Nachos
