Ingredients
1 lb ground beef
Salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
24 tater tots, cooked and crispy
6 slices cheddar cheese, cut into small squares
12 small pickle slices
6 cherry tomatoes, sliced
Lettuce leaves, cut into small pieces
Mayonnaise, for serving
Ketchup, for serving

Instructions
1. In a bowl, mix the ground beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Shape the mixture into small patties, about 1 inch wide.
2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the patties for 2-3 minutes on each side until fully cooked. Add a square of cheddar cheese on each patty in the last minute to melt.
3. To assemble, take a tater tot and add a dollop of mayonnaise on top. Layer with lettuce, a cheeseburger patty, a slice of cherry tomato, and a pickle slice. Finish with another tater tot on top. Secure with a toothpick.
4. Arrange the mini tater tot cheeseburgers on a platter and serve with ketchup and extra mayonnaise for dipping.
