How to Make Tater Tot Casserole in a Crock Pot
Spray your 6-quart crock pot with cooking spray and pour in your tater tots. In a medium saucepan, melt your butter on the stove. Add in your soup, sour cream, chopped onions and 1 cup of Cheddar cheese. Stir over heat until everything is well combined and the cheese is almost all melted. Pour your mixture over your tater tots. Sprinkle on your remaining cheese. Cover and cook on high for 2 hours. And that’s it!

Can crockpot recipes be made the night before..I have to be at work 5 am..no time to prep in the morning
Hi Tammy!
Some of them can be prepped the night before. It depends on the recipe. For instance, you wouldn’t want to prep one the night before that has raw potatoes in it because the potatoes would turn brown. I have, however, prepped some meatloaf recipes the night before. I haven’t tried doing that with this recipe, but think it could work. If you give it a try, let me know how it turns out!

I made a wfpb version of this and it was excellent! Thank you for sharing.
What could I sub for the sour cream? I don’t like it but I love ricotta cheese. Could I use that? I don’t like yogurt either. I am a super taster so I can’t eat either of those. We have tater tots but not a whole bag so I will have to half the recipe. This sounds good minus the sour cream.
Hi Gail!
I haven’t tried this recipe with ricotta cheese. I believe it would change the texture of the recipe, but if you give it a try, let me know how it turns out!

This sounds sooo good and the sauce tastes delicious! It is crocking as I write. Also I couldn’t comment on your Dilly roast recipe. Another new favorite here! Who would think dill pickles!! I’m going to try the Mississippi roast next. 👍
