# Instructions:

Reduce heat to medium, sprinkle flour over the meat, and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Slowly add milk while whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.

Bake in the oven according to tater tot package time until golden brown.

It is normal for some tater tots to sink into the casserole.
