Nachos with a Twist

Last week, Janice was out in Portland, OR visiting family. While she was there, she was a guest on the local ABC morning show talking about tips for eating healthy on a budget. In contrast, that evening, she went to a sports bar to watch the Red Sox game and to sample some of the local "cuisine." We put the word cuisine in quotes because what she ate was a bit odd to say the least: deep-fat fried Tater Tots topped with some sort of "cheese sauce" (notice the quotes again) and a few chopped tomatoes. Though Janice admits the greasy Tachos tasted pretty good, she wouldn't make a habit out of eating them (lest she clog up her arteries and require a new plus-size wardrobe). If your mouth is watering and you'd like to make this dish at home, be sure to use a lowfat cheese (we like Cabot) and one of our favorite all-natural Best of the Bunch Tot brands: Ian's Alphatots or Cascadian Farm Spud Puppies.
