Crock Pot Cheesy Chicken Bacon Casserole
This weekend we finally had some weather that felt more like fall. A little cooler temperatures, the leaves changing here and of course a nice fall storm to kick things into gear. Cooler weather always makes me want to get food in the crock pot and this cheesy chicken bacon casserole is the perfect recipe to start this season off.

Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 32 oz bag of tater tots
- 1 small bag of bacon bits
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- ¾ cup milk
- Salt and Pepper
Step By Step
Get that crock pot or slow cooker out, I am sure you can also use a pressure cooker as well, but I love a good slow cooked meal that wafts through the house and brings warmth in.
Make sure to spray your crock pot with nonstick spray and then take your chicken breasts and cut them into bite sized pieces. Throw about a 1/3 of the chicken into the crock pot and start layering on the goodness.
Layer on a 1/3 of the cheese and bacon as well. Do not worry if it looks a bit sparse, once everything is in and cooking it will be incredibly cheesy and full of flavor. Go ahead and top the first layer with 1/2 of the bag of tater tots.
I prefer to use the tater tot rounds and they seem to cook better throughout in the crock pot and are just the right amount of potatoey goodness! You can also add in some of your favorite seasonings between the layers as well.
Repeat the layering process with the remaining chicken, bacon, cheese and tater tops. Season with salt and pepper, pour the milk over the casserole and then cover and set on low for 4 hours. What results is a mouthful of happiness, with ooey gooey cheesy goodness that your family will absolutely love and praise you for!
