  4. Add cheddar cheese soup, sour cream, chopped bacon, and milk to the skillet. Stir until well combined.
  5. Pour the beef mixture into the prepared baking dish. Add frozen tater tots and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix everything together until evenly coated.

Notes

This dish is highly adaptable—feel free to swap in turkey or chicken for the beef, or use pepper jack cheese for a spicy kick. For extra crispiness, broil the top for the last 3 minutes of baking. Leftovers reheat beautifully in the oven or air fryer.
