So simple.. yet soo delicious. There are just few common ingredients involved here, potatoes, some cheese, onion, salt and pepper, and you get one healthy amazingly addictive snack. Crispy on the outside, still soft in the inside and beyond all an amazing taste.

There is no need to fry as the baked tater tots are just perfect. It may take some minutes to form all the tots but it worth all the effort.
You can use sweet potato too for more variation, garlic, with or without cheese, whatever you think may please you best. In any way they turn awesome. Once you make them you will keep wanting more.
