I know most people have a tater tot casserole recipe, but I thought I would share mine. This is actually the combination of my grandmother's, my mother's and my recipe which I like better then any of the three individual ones.
1-1.5 lb lean ground beef
1 10.5 ounce can cream of mushroom soup
1lb bag frozen classic mixed vegetables (corn, peas, green beans, carrots)
3oz Durkee fried onions (about half a 6oz container)
10oz freshly grated sharp cheddar cheese
Enough tater tots to cover the top
American cheese (optional)
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Brown and drain the hamburger and in the same pan while still hot add in the cream of mushroom soup, mixed veggies, garlic powder and sharp cheddar cheese and mix well. Transfer to a baking dish, I prefer a 9x13 pyrex dish for this. Top with the fried onions evenly and then top with the tots. Bake @425 until the tots are nice and brown on top. At this point I add a layer of American Cheese on top and return it to the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
I serve it with cottage cheese, goes great with it.
