# What You'll Need:
→ For the Skewers

48 tater tots (frozen)
02 -
½ cup cheddar cheese, freshly grated
03 -
8 slices bacon, finely chopped
04 -
2 green onions, chopped
→ For Serving
05 -
Sour cream, to taste
# Let's Cook!:
01 -
Follow the package instructions to bake the tater tots; I baked mine at 425°F for 28 minutes, flipping them once halfway through.
02 -
Take them out of the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes. Once they are cool enough to handle, thread 4 to 6 tater tots onto each skewer.
03 -
Arrange the skewers on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle cheese over the tater tots, followed by bacon bits, and finally, half of the chopped green onion.
04 -
Place them back in the oven and bake for an additional 5 to 7 minutes until the cheese is melted.
05 -
Remove from the oven and garnish with the remaining green onions. Serve with a side of sour cream.
# Cook's Notes:
01 -
For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of smoked paprika or chili powder before baking.
02 -
Use pre-cooked bacon to save time.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven for best results.
