Bacon Cheeseburger Tot Skillet

Bacon Cheeseburger Tot Skillet. This is more of a cowboy/country type meal. If you like those, this is for you. The title basically covers almost every ingredient…Tater tots, ground turkey meat, bacon, shredded cheese with green onions on top. You can substitute several of these ingredients. Use ground beef instead of ground turkey. Use turkey bacon, or cut it all together, if you choose. Throw in some white or yellow onions into the mix instead of the green onions on top. And last but not least, your choice of cheese.

Confession time
I do have a confession about this recipe. If you don’t like it “dry” tasting, you can do a couple of things. One, try putting the cheese directly on top of the tots and then again on top of the bacon. Or, two, use cheddar cheese soup mix + maybe 1/4 to 1/2 cup of milk in lieu of or in addition to the cheese I call for in the recipe.

No matter what your choice ends up being, this is an awesome feed your family with one skillet meal.
