Ingredients
Cheese sauce:- ¼ cup plant-based butter
- ¼ cup flour
- 1 cup plant-based milk
- 1 cup Vitalite™ Plant-Based Cheddar Style Shreds
- ¼ cup diced pickled jalapenos
- ½ teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
Additional Ingredients:
- 1 bag of frozen tater tots
- Plant-based ground meat
- Taco seasoning
- Pico de gallo
- Guacamole
Directions
- Heat frozen tater tots in the oven as directed on packaging. While tater tots are being heated, cook one package of your preferred plant-based ground meat as directed along with your favorite taco seasoning.
- Cheese sauce: In a medium size saucepan, heat plant-based butter under low heat. Once butter is melted, add 2 tablespoons of flour and mix. Add the remainder of flour and mix that in as well. Slowly add plant-based milk while mixing in between. This should result in a texture similar to mashed potatoes. Slowly add Vitalite™ Plant-Based Cheddar Style Shreds while continuing to stir mixture until fully melted. Add jalapenos, turmeric powder, garlic powder and salt and mix.
- Layer tater tots with planted-based ground meat, romaine, guacamole, plant-based sour cream, pico de gallo and cheese sauce.
