Step-by-Step Instructions

Preparing the Bacon Cheeseburger Tater Tot Casserole

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. Cook the Bacon: In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, then crumble the bacon once cooled.
  3. Cook the Ground Beef: In the same skillet, add the ground beef and cook over medium heat until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
  4. Add Onion and Garlic: Add the onion and garlic to the skillet with the ground beef. Cook until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cooked ground beef mixture, crumbled bacon, cheddar cheese soup, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Assemble the Casserole: Spread the beef mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish. Arrange the tater tots in a single layer over the top of the beef mixture.
  7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until the tater tots are golden brown and crispy.
  8. Add Cheese: Remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Garnish and Serve: Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, sliced pickles, and diced tomatoes if desired.
