By mnhenselen

Enjoy tater tots and chili dogs in one mouth-watering dish.

Ingredients

• 1 (24 ounce) can chili
• 8 hot dogs
• 1 (32 ounce) package frozen tater tots
• 8 ounces cheddar cheese
• salt
• pepper

Preparation

Step 1

1 Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.
2 Pour your Chili into a 9" X 13" pan. If the sauce doesn't comfortably cover the pan mix in a 1/4 cup of ketchup.
3 Cut up the Hot Dogs and mix into the chili.
4 Make sure the hot dogs have at least some chili sauce on them or they will burn.
5 Put as many frozen tater tots on top of mixture as they will fit without overlapping. A uniform pattern cooks better and faster.
6 Bake for 30 minutes or until tots are golden brown.
7 Reduce the heat to 350 degrees.
8 Lightly dust with salt and pepper to taste.
9 Sprinkle the cheese on top of the tots and bake for another 10 minutes or until the cheese begins to brown.
