Notes
I use cheddar and pepper jack cheese but you can use whatever you like.
The top of the tater tots gets crispy. If you want them extra crispy you can broil them for a couple of minutes before adding the cheese on top. OR prior to assembling place the tater tots on a baking sheet and bake in a 425 preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then place them on the casserole.
You can make this the night before just add the tater tots right before baking.
