Tater Tots I Made It

Tater Tots

Recipe by Tippystclair: Tater Tots and
recipe by Pleasantvalleycabins: Homemade Tater Tots
Combined these two recipes to get the best of both worlds on a baked tater tot. I liked the flour in one recipe with the option to bake and the cheese in the other.
Ran into trouble. I rinsed the shredded potatoes and pressed them dry then mixed in with the rest of the ingredients. Mix would not stay together so I decided to throw in a couple of eggs as a binder. Unfortunately I had forgot to add any flour, Duh! Well the eggs are already in there and you can't unring a bell. Went ahead and added the flour. Used some more for dusting and baked at 400F for 45 minutes.
Tots turned out just a little springy, because of the egg and flour combination. Still tasty but not like tater tots should taste.
Made 2 pounds of this concoction. Going to use them in a casserole dish tomorrow.
I'm sure each of these recipes would work well as a stand alone recipe -- as long as the directions are followed.

At least you saved the mix, pso, and it didn't go to waste. The Great Tater Tot Ordeal of 2013. :)
