Homemade Tater Tots

Homemade Tater Tots
If you want to feel like a kid in an adult way, make this recipe.  These were so yummy and they don’t leave that greasy after-taste in your mouth like the store bought tater tots.

1 egg
¼ cup margarine
3 cups mashed potatoes
½ tsp Lawry’s seasoning salt
¼ tsp celery salt
½ tsp onion powder
¼ cup self-rising buttermilk corn meal

Beat egg and margarine together in mixing bowl.  (I used the tub margarine as it’s already soft).  This is great for leftover mashed potatoes.  I used leftover garlic potatoes and carrots.  Add potatoes and spices and mix just until combined.  Fold in corn meal (do not beat).  Using small ice cream scoop, drop on lightly greased cookie sheet.  Slightly flatten with fork.  Bake at 400° for 30 minutes.  Remove from oven and flip all tots, reduce oven to 375° and bake 15 minutes longer.
