A fabulous finger food. Tasty flattened Tot tapas are topped with beans, shredded chicken, drizzled sour cream, hot sauce and chopped cilantro.

Instructions

  5. Rinse and chop your cilantro and mince your jalapeños.

  6. On a large platter, place the smashed tots around leaving space for you to garnish them and your guests to easily grab them. Place a dollop of beans, then some shredded chicken and a drizzle of the sour cream and hot sauce mixture. Then carefully place some chopped cilantro and minced jalapeño onto each smashed Puff for the final touch and enjoy.
