Totchos! (Tater Tot Nachos)

If you love nachos and tater tots, you are going to love these cheesy Totchos! Easy to make, super delicious, and fun to eat!

Why tater tots get a bad rap from some people alludes me. They’re basically shredded hash browns all in a crispy tiny package. My family looooves them. 

If you love them, too, and also nachos, you will go crazy for these Totchos!

What are Totchos?

Totchos are a fun and delicious twist on traditional nachos, where tortilla chips are replaced with crispy tater tots. They’re coated with my homemade taco seasoning, baked, and then loaded with my favorite homemade pico de gallo, guacamole, sour cream, black olives, and scallions! They’re amazing.

Totchos Recipe Variations

This Totchos recipe is very forgiving, so feel free to get creative!

• Replace the taco seasoning with some cajun spice.
• Try different cheeses. Mexican blend, sharp cheddar, and Pepper Jack are all great options.
• Add on some black beans or pinto beans.
• Make it more of a meal with cooked and seasoned ground beef, shredded chicken, or chorizo.

Keep in mind that the more toppings you add, the more these Totchos become a meal where a bowl and fork might be needed – buy hey, nothing wrong with that!

These are great as a snack, for lunch, or served to a crowd on game day. Adults and kids alike will love them!
