- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 bag (32 oz) frozen tater tots
- 6 strips cooked bacon, crumbled
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks.
- Add the diced onion and cook for another 3-4 minutes until softened.
- Season the mixture with salt, pepper, and ranch seasoning.
- In a separate bowl, combine the cheddar cheese soup with a little water to loosen it up, then stir in half of the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese.

- Layer the tater tots on top of the beef.
- Pour the cheesy soup mixture over the tater tots, then top it with the remaining cheddar and mozzarella cheeses.

- Once it’s out of the oven, sprinkle with crumbled bacon and serve hot!
Notes
For extra crispiness, broil the casserole for a couple of minutes after baking. You can customize by adding veggies or using different cheese.
