FIESTA TATER TOT® CASSEROLE
We invented this recipe one night after one of us wanted Tater Tot® casserole for supper, while the other wanted Mexican...It's SUPER easy and SUPER yummy! Baking the Tater Tots® before layering may be unnecessary but we wanted to make sure they had a chance to crisp up. The whole family LOVED this dish! Hope you do too!

PETE'S FRENCH FRY SEASONING
This is a recipe my husband created when we were out of all season salt, now when frying up tator tots or french fries we only use this seasoning mix!! Since we don't have a deep fryer, we usually pan fry our tator tots and then toss them with this seasoning. They taste awesome!! We use sea salt so that the sodium isn't as high. If you choose to use regular salt you may need to adjust the amount of salt added to get the right taste. Also tastes great on hashbrowns or diced potatoes!!

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl.
- Sprinkle over pan-fried or deep-fried tator tots, french fries, or hashbrowns.
- Note: Makes enough to cover a 2 lb. bag of tator tots or french fries.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for tater tots because they are starchy and hold their shape well. Look for potatoes that are firm and smooth, without any blemishes or sprouts.
- Grate the potatoes finely: This will help the tater tots to cook evenly. You can use a food processor or a box grater to grate the potatoes.
- Season the potatoes well: Don't be afraid to add plenty of salt, pepper, and other seasonings to the potatoes. This will help to give them flavor.
- Chill the potatoes before frying: This will help them to hold their shape better. You can chill the potatoes for up to 30 minutes before frying.
- Fry the tater tots in hot oil: The oil should be at least 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Fry the tater tots in batches until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Serve the tater tots immediately: Tater tots are best served hot and crispy. You can serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, mayonnaise, or ranch dressing.
