I do not know what it is about tater tots, but my family and I love them. Anytime I see a recipe involving tater tots, I always check it out. There is just something so comforting and delicious about tater tots. Wether eating them for breakfast, lunch, dinner or even a snack my family gets excited seeing them in a meal.
The nice thing about this recipe is that you can prepare it the night before, minus the tater tots, cover and refrigerate it. Then the next morning top with tater tots and bake. This will save you time in the morning. Or you can prepare the whole thing in the morning if you choose.
