This fun and crispy twist on classic pizza uses tater tots as the crust, making it a perfect crowd-pleaser for family dinners or game nights!
Ingredients:
1 bag (32 oz) frozen tater tots
1 cup pizza sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup pepperoni slices
1/4 cup green bell pepper, diced
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat the oven: Set to 425°F (220°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or a pizza pan.
Bake the tater tots: Arrange tater tots in a single layer on the pan. Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden and crisp.
Form the crust: Using a spatula, gently press the tater tots down to create an even crust.
Add the toppings: Spread pizza sauce over the tater tot crust. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly, followed by pepperoni slices and diced green bell peppers. Add Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes if desired.
Bake again: Return to the oven and bake for another 10–12 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve: Let it cool slightly before slicing. Enjoy with ranch dressing or marinara for dipping!
