Prep Time:20 mins
cookTime:10 mins
Yields:4 – 5 serving(s)

Ingredients

  • 1 32-oz. package tater tots
  • 8 slices bacon, chopped
  • 1/4 cup freshly chopped chives
  • 1 container sour cream
  • 2 Tbsp. butter
  • 2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 2/3 cups sharp cheddar
  • 1/4 tsp. chili powder

Directions

Step 1

Heat grill to medium.

Step 2

Spray two disposable pie plates with cooking spray and spread tater tots in a single layer in each. Grill for about 20 minutes, stirring regularly. Set aside.

Step 3

Meanwhile, fry the bacon in a sauté pan over medium heat, then place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.

Step 4

Make the cheese sauce: In a deep-walled sauté pan over medium heat, melt butter. Sprinkle in flour, whisking to combine to create a slurry. Gradually pour in milk, whisking the entire time, to form a thin sauce. Gradually stir in cheddar and chili powder, mixing until everything has combined. Remove sauce from heat.

Step 5

Layer tater tots into small bowls or wide-mouthed mason jars. Top with cheese sauce, bacon, sour cream, and chives. Repeat layers until you’ve reached the top of the containers.

Onion Rings

These air fryer onion rings are such a fun appetizer or game day snack! They’re crispy on the outside, tender in the middle, and filled with sweet and savory onion flavor.

Prep Time: 15 minutes mins
Cook Time: 10 minutes mins
Serves 4

Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1¼ cups panko bread crumbs
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • Heaping ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 yellow onion, sliced into ½-inch rings
  • Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
  • Tartar Sauce, optional, for dipping

Instructions

  • On a rimmed tray, mix the panko, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. In a small shallow bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Place the flour in another small bowl.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 370°F.
  • Dip each onion ring into the flour, then tap to remove any excess flour. Dip it in the egg, coat with the panko mixture, and then place on a large plate.
  • Drizzle the onion rings with olive oil and transfer them to the air fryer basket, arranging them in a single layer with a little space around each ring. Don’t overcrowd the basket. Work in batches if necessary. Air fry for 8 to 11 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp. Repeat with any remaining onion rings. Serve with tartar sauce, if desired.

Notes

Tip: Once all batches are finished, toss them all back into the air fryer (no need to place in a single layer this time) for 1 to 2 minutes to warm any that got cold from the first batch.
