Yummy Tater Tot Casserole

Who doesn’t love tater tots?? They remind me of my childhood, so I could eat them anytime and be perfectly content…probably a few pounds heavier, but content. My kids now devour them, so making tater tot casserole was a no brainer for me!

The kids would eat this or my Crockpot Pizza Casserole anytime! And on game day, we always make Tater Tot Nachos!

Did you know Americans consume approximately 70 million pounds of tater tots per year? Guess we’re not the only ones who love them.

It’s pretty easy to brown the meat, mix in the soup, milk, Worcestershire and cheese, place the ingredients in the baking dish and top with the potatoes and cheese.

I always look for ways to make dinner a little healthier, so I often use ground turkey instead of ground beef, and I throw in some frozen peas, broccoli or green beans. The kids roll their eyes about it, but they know I care 🙂
Using cream of chicken or celery soup, whatever you have in your pantry, also works great in this recipe.
