1 (32 ounce) bag tater tots
0.5 (3 ounce) jar bacon bits (I used Hormel brand) - I made my own bacon and chopped it in my mini food processor
5 boneless skinless chicken breasts - Next time I would cut the chicken into pieces so it's more like a casserole, the whole chicken breasts were kind of weird
1 1/2 cups grated colby cheese - I used Mild Cheddar Cheese instead of 2 different kinds
1 1/2 cups grated monterey jack pepper cheese
3/4 cup milk
salt and pepper
Optional: I added a small can of Diced Green Chiles
Directions:

1 Grease the bottom of the crock pot.
2 Layer 1/2 the tater tots on the bottom of the pot.
3 Sprinkle with 1/4 of the jar of bacon bits.
4 Combine the two cheeses, and sprinkle 1/3 of it over the bacon and tots.
5 Top cheese with the chicken breasts.
6 Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper to taste.
7 Top chicken with another 1/3 of cheese.
8 Sprinkle with another 1/4 of the jar of bacon bits.
9 Add remainder of the tater tots.
10 Top with final 1/3 of the cheese.
11 Pour milk over the top.
12 Set crock pot to high and cook 3-4 hours.
