Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a large skillet, brown the ground beef with the onions. Drain the excess fat.
Spray a 9×13 dish with non-stick spray. Spread the ground beef mixture evenly over the bottom of the dish, then season with seasoned salt, or salt & pepper.
Arrange the frozen tater tots evenly over the ground beef. My son lined them up perfectly – I usually do a more random covering.
In a small bowl, whisk the soup and milk until smooth and spread over tater tot and beef layers.
Sprinkle the cheese over the top
Bake for 30-40 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and brown!
