Tater Tots Casserole image

My husband begged me to find this recipe and make it-- its his favorite comfort food. It reminds him of his childhood, sitting down at the dinner table on a Friday night, and digging into a warm dinner that his mom had just pulled out of the oven. He loved it. I didn't care for it all that much, because I know its such a fattening dinner, but I love cooking for my husband and making him smile.

Time 45m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 lb ground turkey or 1/2 lb chicken
1 small onion, chopped
1 1/2 cups frozen mixed vegetables
0.5 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups frozen tater tots

Steps:

  • Brown your ground meat, and drain.
  • Sautee onions and mix into the ground meat.
  • Spray a small baking dish (I used a small loaf pan) with cooking spray, and spread ground meat mixture evenly on the bottom.
  • Spread the mixed frozen veggies on top of the ground beef.
  • Next, top off the veggies with the cream of mushroom soup.
  • On top of the soup, layer the cheese.
  • Lastly, top of the cheese with the tater tots.
  • I probably used more than 2 cups of them.
  • I also sprinkled some of the cheese on top of the tots.
  • Bake in a 350 oven for 15 minutes, uncovered.
  • After 15 minutes is up, cover the pan with foil, and bake for 15 minutes more.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.
  • · This recipe originally called for 1 can of cut up tomatoes, and for the tomatoes to be layered on top of the vegetables, and the soup and tater tots on top of that.
  • I left it out because I don't like tomatoes, but I know others might like to add that in there.
