For the Loaded Tots

Use a broiler-safe pan if you want to finish with a bubbly cheese crust—golden as doubloons

  • 1 Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese

Notes

A tavern-style snack worthy of any crew’s revelry—crispy tots drenched in savory sauce, bacon, and molten cheddar. Best served fresh from the galley. Store leftovers in the ship’s stores for up to 2 days; reheat in a hot oven to restore crispness.
