Easy Tator Tot Casserole


You will need:

  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1/2 yellow onion chopped
  • garlic powder
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 can Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup (Store brand does change the taste of this recipe, so I recommend Campbell's)
  • Ore-ida Tator Tots
  • 1/2 of the soup can filled with water and 1/2 can of milk 
  • 8 oz. shredded cheddar cheese
  • 8 oz. shredded mozarella cheese.

Brown ground beef in a skillet with the chopped onion, sprinkle a generous amount of garlic powder, salt and pepper. After it is brown, drain and return to the pan.




Add the can of cream of mushroom soup to the meat, then add the milk and water. Bring to a boil.....remove from heat.....

Pour it in a greased oblong casserole dish.........top with the grated cheeses......


Then top with the tator tots, sprinkle the top with salt.....
Cook at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes until golden brown.

Let it stand for about 5-10 minutes before serving. Yummy....just look at that gooey cheese!

Serve it with a side salad, and your favorite bread .....I like Texas toast. Enjoy!

P.S. My boys like the tator tot casserole with ketchup, but I like it just like you see it pictured here! Hold the ketchup on mine, Please...
Enjoy~
