10+ Family-Friendly Vegan Recipes for using Tater Tots

April 12, 2022Updated April 13, 2022 By Taylor Jasmine Leave a Comment

Tater tots have recently become one of the most crave-worthy accidentally vegan savory treats. Though they’re not something you’d want to eat every day, they’re not completely junk food, either. Here’s a roundup of family-friendly vegan recipes for using tater tots.

Vegan recipes for using tater tots

Moderation is key, along with combining tater tots with good-for-you ingredients. Here you’ll find sheet pan dinners, casseroles, hot dish, and of course, tater tot nachos (aka totchos). 

A cup’s worth of tater tots isn’t a powerhouse of nutrients, but it’s not empty calories, either. That amount contains 4 grams of fiber, 4 grams of protein, and 12% of the daily value of Vitamin C. Less desirable is the fat and sodium content, which these recipes offset with beans, other plant proteins, and plenty of vegetables.
