Homemade Tater Tots

Posted by Courtney Lopez on

Our homemade tater tots are easy to make! We use leftover mashed potatoes to turn them into mashed potato tater tots!

Homemade Mashed Potato Tater Tots can be baked, fried or even air fried in our case.  Nothing beats a homemade fresh tater tot!  I boiled up one red potato for my daughter and turned it into a bite size fun toddler lunch for her.  She thinks it’s the ultimate toddler snack and I think it’s a great mommy snack too!  Toddlers can easily pick these up and make no messed – they’re fun and delicious.

Kay has really taken a liking to potato lately.  She’s pretty obsessed with baked potatoes right now too.  She loves when I make Air Fryer Baked Potato with dinner!  They’re the best baked potatoes in our opinion.  It has a salty, garlicky seasoned crust and the inside is perfection.   Nowwww on tot the tater tots!  I hate buying something I can make at home and if I can make it at home for a fraction of the cost, even better!  Long gone are the days picking up already made items in the freezer section.  I remember living off half that stuff growing up.. WHAT were my parents thinking?

New England Clam Chowder Recipe with Flounder

A rich and creamy New England Clam Chowder recipe where we swapped Flounder for Clams.  Very subtle flavor of the sea with the flounder make this a great soup for FPIES trailing something new.

New England Clam Chowder Recipe with Flounder

We recently wanted to add another protein to Kay’s diet.  Since she has FPIES we have to trial each new food she tries.  We’ve contemplated turkey for quite some time, but “chickened” out thanks to her Chicken FPIES food allergy.  Doctors typically say that after 18 months to 2 years you can retrial the trigger foods.  Since chicken and turkey are so close, we’ve decided to hold off for now.  Right now her only safe proteins are beef, pork, salmon, and we’re working on flounder!
