Cheesy Bacon Tater Tot Skewers with Green Onions
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Soak 4 wooden skewers in cold water for 00:15:00, then lay them out to dry so they9re ready to use.

  2. 2

    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to minimize sticking. Arrange 20 whole of Frozen Tater Tot(s) in a single, evenly spaced layer for consistent browning.

  3. 3

    Bake for 00:20:00, flipping the tots after 00:10:00 to crisp both sides. When they9re as crispy as you like, remove from the oven and immediately season with 1 pinch of To Taste [ingredient:8160b185-2abf-4f37-b58d-9a63a1bb5553] so it adheres well.

  4. 4

    Thread 4 whole of Frozen Tater Tot(s) onto each skewer, rotating each tot so the skewer sits flat and stable. Place the skewers back on the sheet and surround them with any remaining loose tots. Evenly sprinkle 0.75 cups of Shredded Cheddar Cheese, then 0.25 cups of Shredded Fresh Mozzarella Cheese over the skewers (and loose tots, if desired).

  5. 5

    Bake until the cheese just starts to melt, about 00:05:00. Switch the oven to Broil and broil until the cheese is bubbling; watch closely to avoid over-browning. Remove from the oven.

  6. 6

    Transfer the skewers to a plate and sprinkle evenly with 4 slices of Bacon and 2 whole of Sliced Green Onion(s).
