Burger Tots | Party Food for 2

This is the part where I am supposed to write a long winded story about how I watched my father mauled by tigers at a young age, and now love making party food. The truth is more boring, I just like to make party food and have friends over. Is that so bad? Burgers, tater tots, cheese, all the keys to a happy life. So this recipe is going to, quite literally, smash those together.

Ingredients

48 Tater Tots, , frozen

• 1/2 lbs. Ground beef

• 1/2 lbs. Ground Pork

• 1/2 c Onion, , finely diced

• Salt and Pepper to taste

• 2 tbsp Mayonnaise

• 2 tbsp Yellow mustard

• 2 tbsp Ketchup

• 2 tbsp Pickle relish

• 1 cup Cheddar cheese, , shredded

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F.

2. Brown ground beef in a skillet over medium high heat. Once meat has browned drain the grease then add beef and onions back to the skillet and cook until softened.

3. Add mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, and pickle relish to the ground beef and stir to combine. Salt and pepper to taste.

4. Grease a mini muffin pan and place three tater tots in each cup. Bake for 10 minutes.

5. After 10 minutes remove the muffin pan from the oven and use a tamper to press the tater tots down into each cup. This will create a tater tot cup.

6. Fill the tater tots with the ground beef mixture and top with cheddar cheese.

7. Place the tater tots back in the oven and cook for another 15 minutes.

8. Remove the cheeseburger tots from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the muffin pan.

9. Enjoy!
