Loaded potato tots are next level game day food. Plush and crunchy potato tots are air fried to a crisp and then topped with a generous amount of cheese, bacon, scallions, and a tangy lime crema. We know some folks are team crunchy cheese, and some folks are team melty cheese. In this recipe we cater to both. The first layer of tots stays pullable and soft, while the tots on top are browned to a glistening, burnished finish.
Loaded Game Day Potato Tots
Ingredients
- 1 (30 oz) bag frozen potato tots
- ¼ cup sour cream
- 1 lime, zested and juiced
- 8 oz shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 slices cooked bacon, chopped
- ¼ cup thinly sliced scallions
Directions
1) Divide frozen potato tots between two Suvie air fry baskets. Place baskets in the top and bottom zones of Suvie, ensuring the sheet pans are underneath to catch any crumbs. Input settings and cook now or schedule. Halfway through, flip potato tots over for even cooking.

2) Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together ¼ cup sour cream, 1 tbsp lime juice, zest of 1 lime, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside in the fridge.
3) Remove potato tots from Suvie and transfer half of the tots to a greased Suvie pan. Sprinkle half the cheddar cheese over the tots, followed by half the bacon. Repeat with the remaining tots and cheddar, saving the remaining bacon for Step 4. Return pan to Suvie and broil until cheese is browned and bubbling, about 5 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
4) Remove pan from Suvie. Sprinkle with remaining bacon. Drizzle half the lime crema over the tots and garnish with scallions. Serve with remaining lime crema on the side for dipping.
