Totchos Ingredients
*Ingredient amounts are located in the recipe card at the end of this post.
Frozen Tater Tots:These can be found in the freezer section of most grocery stores. Frozen french fries or even hash browns can be used as well.
Fritos Corn Chips:I love using Fritos for this recipe because of the extra crunch they give. But any other brand of tortilla chips can be substituted.
Beef & Bean Chili:Use any pre-made chili or make this Disney World Chili! Black beans or refried beans are great substitutes for chili.
Queso Dip:This can also be found in the grocery store. Use your favorite brand.
Shredded Cheddar Cheese:Shredded cheese is always a great topping for nachos! The best varieties are cheddar, Mexican cheese blend, Colby Jack, or even Pepper Jack.
Sour Cream:This adds a delicious creaminess to the dish.
