Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and toss your cast iron in it.
In a large bowl, portion out the tater tots.
Using the cooking spray, cover the tots with the oil, stirring or shaking to ensure maximum coverage.
Sprinkle a generous portion of Somethin’ To Taco Bout on the oiled up tater tots and toss the tots. Add more to ensure coverage.
Carefully remove the cast iron (it’s hot!), spray with cooking spray and quickly add your tots, trying to achieve a single layer.
Put it back in the oven and cook until desired crispiness is achieved (approx 15 minutes)

Remove the skillet from the oven and being layering ground beef and cheese on top of the tots.
Place the skillet back in the oven for 2 to 3 minutes, just enough to melt the cheese.
Add a layer of tomatoes, a layer of green onions, and hit it with a drizzle of the jalapeno crema.
