I thought these were supposed to all be air fryer recipes. I just got my husband an air fryer and what led me here was that and I didn’t find it so I was a bit disappointed love the recipe though going to try it out but I was looking for air fryer recipes

LOVE THIS RECIPE THANKS EASY. ONLY CHANGE ADDED A DOLLOP OF SOUR CREAM. YUMMY
Evan Robinson
Easy and yummy! I did 1.5 lbs of meat and broiled the whole thing a few minutes to melt the cheese.
Steven Keller
Never thought of this combination and it works! Delicious!
Anthony Reynolds
Yum! I made this as written, except I put the tots on top because I like crispy tots.
Nicholas Hayes
Good, but nothing of nutritional value in it. We ate fruit on the side, but the sloppy tots were pretty filling on their own.

Like the recipe, but changed it to match what needed used up. My family like it but not with great enthusiasm. I sauteed an onion, garlic, and mushrooms which were sliced. Moved to baking dish. Browned one pound of ground beef, drained and and moved to baking dish along with a half a small jar of salsa, tomato paste, and filled the salsa jar with water and added that too. Seasoned with basic stuff, and sprinkled cheddar cheese. Put a layer of tatter tots and sprinkled more cheese on top of the tots. Baked for 40 minutes at 350. Would make it again cause I really like it. Would use and full can of salsa and enough water to get the last of the salsa out of the jar

Sorry, but I found it disappointing. The sloppy joe mixture overwhelmed the tots so much I could barely taste them.
Penny Castillo
This recipe is a great, quick everyday meal. I did not expect to like it so much.

My family loved this recipe. Will be making this again. Thanks for sharing. So easy! The only addition was a little bit of ketchup on the top.
Miranda Martin

This was a nice and easy weeknight meal. The kids loved it and so did the grown ups! The recipe as-is would feed a family of 4 with no leftovers. Next time I will double it so we can have larger portions.
