This Buffalo Tater Tot Bake Will Spice up Your Super Bowl Party

Spoon UIUC teamed up with Food & Wine magazine to increase awareness about the problem of food waste on our campus. With a microgrant of just under $100, we created 10 original recipes to show you how you can transform leftover late-night eats into something equally amazing the next day.

The Super Bowl is fast approaching, which means Super Bowl parties and tons of snacks. Tater tots are delicious and versatile; nachos are an easy and customizable snack. This recipe creates a beautiful marriage between the two for the ultimate #relationshipgoals.

#SpoonTip: Serve these with ranch, buffalo sauce, or blue cheese dressing.
