Cook ground beef in a large skillet until it’s no longer pink & then drain. Heat the pan & add a bit of oil for better browning. Add the meat to the pan, break it into large pieces, sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of salt, & let it sit for a few minutes. Break the beef into smaller pieces as it cooks. Stir occasionally until the beef is browned.

Combine cooked beef, bacon bits, cheddar cheese, tater tots, cheese soup & sour cream.

Bake for 45-50 minutes.
