I can’t help but think about tater tots when I think about lunch at my elementary school. I never ate them at home, but remembering eating them at school is so nostalgic for me. Our Sweet Potato Tots Recipe is definitely a made-over much healthier version of a regular fried tater tot. Our tots are crunchy, slightly sweet and packed full of vitamins, minerals and fiber.
While they are baking, whip up this delicious Tangy Apricot dipping sauce.
And scarf. Hopefully your children can have memories of these tots for years to come.
