Tater Tots + Nachos = TotChos
The best part of this recipe is that it can use up anything that you have on hand! For instance, I like to keep black beans on hand because they are a healthy protein that I can add to anything. Also, this recipe is both kid and vegetarian friendly, but you can also use pre-cooked lean ground beef or even chorizo. Touchdown!
