Instructions
Prepare the tater tots in the oven following the instructions on the bag.
While the tater tots are baking prepare the taco meat. On the stovetop in a large pan add the ground beef and break up while cooking on medium heat.
Once the burger is broken into small pieces add the onion and continue cooking until there isn't any pink left in the meat and onion is translucent.
In a small bowl mix together the chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano and pepper. Sprinkle this mixture onto the beef mixture and stir in. Evenly top this with the shredded cheese and let it melt.
When the tater tots come out of the oven distribute them into your bowls (I made 3 large bowls, but you could easily make this into 6 servings).
Top the tater tots with the ground beef mixture and then add the chopped tomatoes, sliced avocado, sliced black olives and sour cream on top.
Serve immediately.
