Domino's Pizza is promoting something new up here: Loaded Tater Tots. How in the world did I never think of that? Make your tots, top with chopped green onions, jalapeños, your favorite cheese, some bacon bits, and stick it back in the oven to melt the cheese. Serve with sour cream or whatever else you might want to dip into. Yum!
