This is one of my family's favorite meals, though it's not necessarily the most healthy - it's super quick & easy. We have it every now and then as a fun meal.1 regular-sized bag frozen tator tots
1 can chili with beans (just a cheap one is fine)
1 can kidney or pinto beans (drained & rinsed)
sour cream
cheddar cheese
onion or green onions
This is so easy... You cook up the tator tots according to package directions - usually about 400 degrees for 20 minutes or so. I cook them on a round (pizza-sized) stone, so you don't have to turn them over. Sometimes I do them on convection, to be sure they all get crispy!
While they're cooking, mix the can of chili together with the can of beans and warm up - I usually just mix them together in a microwavable container and warm it in the microwave, but you can heat it on the stove if you prefer. Chop up some onion or slice some green onions. Shred some cheddar (or whatever you like) cheese and put it in a bowl.
On the table you put your bowl of tator tots, a bowl of chili-n-beans, a small bowl of onions, a small bowl of cheese, and some sour cream. We put the tator tots on the plate, then pile with chili-stuff, cheese, sour cream & onions. Of course, different members of the family use different combinations of the toppings. I tend to add hot peppers to mine! :)
Serve it with a nice salad or green vegetable. We feed 5 and usually have a serving or two left-over for lunch the next day.
