Ingredients
6 slices cooked bacon (or microwaveable bacon)
4 cooked and sliced chicken breasts
32 oz. bag of cold tater tots
1/2 cup ranch dressing

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons butter

Preparation
Heat and Preparation: Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
Layer Cakes: Arrange frozen cakes in an even layer on the bottom of the prepared plate.
Add the chicken and bacon: Sprinkle the cooked and chopped chicken fillets over the potato cakes. Crumble the cooked bacon pieces and throw them on the chicken.
Prepare the ranch dressing: Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth and thickened. Remove from heat and stir to coat. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Pour the Ranch dressing: Pour the ranch dressing evenly over the chicken and bacon in the baking dish.
With cheese on top: Sprinkle cheddar cheese over the casserole, covering it completely.
Baking: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the tater tots are crumbly and golden brown.
To serve: Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Add chopped parsley or green onion if desired.
