Recently I came across a recipe for Chili Cheese Tater Tots and it sounded and looked delicious. I knew my family would enjoy it for lunch. But to be honest it was not all I hoped it would be and my family did not enjoy it as much as I had hoped they would. However, they loved the idea.
My husband wished the chili had more sauce to it, it was basically seasoned meat with tomatoes, but no sauce. The other big problem was the serving size, the original recipe said four servings, but it was such a small amount, it did not fill anyone up. Two servings would have been more accurate.
We all loved the combination of chili, tater tots and cheese, but it just needed a different chili and an adjustment in serving size. We feel that a tomato based chili would be the best.
Normally I do not like to share a recipe unless it is perfect. But I decided that since the idea is so good and a lot of people might already have a favorite chili recipe I would share the idea instead of a exact recipe. Therefore I am not including any nutritional information.
