Tater tots are a staple in my house. We almost always have 2 or 3 bags in the freezer. They are perfect as a side dish for any sandwich, great to toss with eggs as a stand in for hash browns, or just as a snack.
I'm pretty much a fan of potatoes in every form and tater tots are definitely toward the top of the list of my favorites!
Just as an aside, I tried making tater tots from scratch once. they were good but they fall into the category of things that are waaaayyyy easier to buy premade. Here is the recipe if you ever want to try them for yourself and come to your own conclusions.

Now in a pan over medium heat heat up your olive oil, add in your diced onions, 1/4 tsp salt, and diced garlic and saute until the onions are soft and translucent.
Then add in your ground beef and continue cooking until the meat is cooked through and crumbly. Remove from heat and drain beef if needed.
Now add in the Worcestershire sauce, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream and veggies. Mix together thoroughly and spread into the bottom of your prepared pan.
Sprinkle about half of your shredded cheese across the ground beef mixture.
Now arrange your tater tots across the top and sprinkle with additional 1/4 tsp salt.
