Do I have to use sharp cheese?

While you don’t necessarily need to use sharp cheese in this recipe, it does add flavor and goes great with the cream of chicken and other ingredients you’re using. However, if you don’t have sharp cheese or don’t like the taste of it, you can use mild cheddar cheese or any other type of cheese that you do prefer to eat.

Recipe Notes

  1. Slice some green onion into small pieces and use that to garnish your dish when you serve it to yourself and loved ones.

  2. If you think the consistency is a bit too thick, you can add a tablespoon or two of water into the slow cooker with your ingredients to create a slightly thinner consistency for your meal.

  3. While the recipe calls for a blend of seasonings, including garlic powder and onion powder, you can add additional seasonings, such as season salt, garlic salt, adobo, or anything else that you typically like to add to your chicken when you prepare it.

What to Serve with the Tater Tot Casserole

Enjoy this Tater Tot Chicken Casserole with a side of garlic bread or cheesy breadsticks. You can even dip your bread into the creamy consistency of the casserole for added flavor. If you don’t want to do garlic bread or breadsticks, biscuits are always an option. You can prepare biscuits from scratch or use canned buttermilk biscuits to serve on the side with your meal.
