- 1 Package of Wellshire Premium Beef Franks
- 2 14.7 oz cans of your favorite chili or 4 cups of your own homemade chili you love!
- 12 oz thick shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 28 oz bag of tater tots
Slice 6 of the Wellshire premium beef franks into discs about 1/4 inch thick. Add to a large bowl. Open up your 2 cans of favorite chili or the 4 cups of homemade chili, pour over the beef franks.
Fold in the beef franks into the chili until fully combined
Grease the insert of your crock pot, then place a layer of your un cooked tater tots on the bottom of the crock pot. Then pour half of your chili mixture on top of the tater tots. After sprinkle sharp cheddar on top of that layer. Then pour the remaining over the cheddar cheese, then sprinkle another layer of the sharp cheddar cheese. Lastly you will layer on another layer of tater tots over the top of the top chili mixture layer.
Turn crock-pot and cook on low for 3 1/2 hours
After either transfer amount you want to oven safe bowls, sprinkle a little bit more cheese on top, and broil on high for about 5 to 6 minutes. That way your top layer of tater tots get a little crispy and the cheese will bubble! Or instead of an oven safe bowl, layer a baking tray with hot dog buns, layer The Easy Crock-Pot Chili Dog Casserole in the hot dog buns-- top with cheese & broil the same way as above.
Lastly sprinkle with green onions and a dallop of cream cheese and you are good to go!
