How To Make This Big Mac Casserole Recipe: 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Spread evenly into pan. Sprinkle with cheese and top with frozen tater tots in a single layer. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until hot.

Tips and Variations

• Serve with a dill pickle.
• Top with sour cream and sprinkle sesame seeds before serving.
• Substitute out ground beef for ground turkey.
• You could also serve this dish inside a sesame seed bun. Just be sure to add additional fresh lettuce and special sauce to each bun.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container.
•  If you don’t have an oven-proof skillet, use a greased 9-10″ square pan or a 10″ deep dish pie plate. 
• While making this recipe, I kept my tater tots frozen.
• If you’d like to swap out the tater tots for chips, you can get creative and make Big Mac Tater Tot nachos using this recipe.
• Swap the cheddar cheese for American Cheese or triple cheddar cheese blend.
• For added flavor, incorporate 1/2 can of cream of mushroom soup. This is a bit different from the traditional version.
