- 1 lb chorizo
- 2 cans chili
- 2 lb bag frozen tater tots
- 2-4 cups grated cheddar (depending on your family’s cheese needs)
Oven @ 425
Layer the tots in a rectangular baking dish, about halfway full. Cook for 25 minutes or until crispy.
While tots are cooking, in saucepan cook ground ground choriso into crumbles (In my family this is called “graveling” your ground meat. o.O).
Drain the meat (because there will be so much grease, and possibly water content, too).
Add the cans of chili to the chorizo and mix over medium heat until well blended. Let simmer on low until the tots come out of the oven.
Pour chili over baked tots. Add a layer of cheese. At this time you can also add things like onions, chile peppers, fritos or other corn chips, whatever you put on chili.
Put back in the oven and bake for another 15 minutes.
