I am not one for eating many foods that are prepared, prepackaged or processed… BUT this recipe is one of my exceptions. I loved this recipe long before I joined the Whole Foods Movement and I think as long as it is an occasional meal we will be a-okay!

Recipe Notes
If you have leftover tater tots and cheese add a final layer on the top. Hold off on the last little bit of cheese until the last 5 minutes of cooking. This will allow the top layer of tots to crisp up.
