_Sips coffee_ Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you about my absolute favorite midnight craving that’ll make your taste buds dance – the Ultimate Loaded Tater Tot Nachos, or as I like to call them, “Totchos”! Trust me, once you try these, you’ll be sneaking to the kitchen at midnight more often than you’d like to admit (but hey, no judgment here! 😉).
Picture this: crispy, golden tater tots smothered in melted cheese, topped with crispy bacon bits, green onions, and a drizzle of homemade ranch sauce. I know, I’m already drooling too! This is the kind of snack that makes you forget about your diet plans, and honestly? Sometimes that’s exactly what we need!
Here’s what you’ll need (I promise it’s worth the grocery trip):
– 1 bag frozen tater tots
– 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
– 6 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
– 3 green onions, chopped
– 1/2 cup sour cream
– Ranch seasoning mix
– Optional: jalapeños (for my spicy queens out there!)
Now, let’s get cooking! 👩🍳
1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (don’t skip this step, beauties!)
2. Arrange your tots in a single layer on a baking sheet
3. Bake for 25-30 minutes until they’re golden and crispy (patience is key!)

4. Mix sour cream with a bit of ranch seasoning and drizzle it all over
