Step 2: While the tater tots are baking, pour the chicken gravy into a small saucepan and heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally.
Step 3: Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove, drain excess fat, and chop into small bits.
Step 4: Once the tater tots are crispy, pile them on a serving platter. Pour hot chicken gravy over the tater tots, scatter cheese curds on top, and finish with bacon bits and green onions.
Step 5: Serve immediately while hot and gooey.
