A quintessential comfort food that balances a savory, seasoned ground beef base with a perfectly crispy golden potato crust. This hearty dish is a reliable favorite for busy families, combining creamy textures with the nostalgic crunch of frozen tater tots in a single, crowd-pleasing pan.
Ingredients
1 lb ground beef (lean)
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 lb bag frozen tater tots
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef with the diced onions until fully cooked; drain excess fat.
Stir in the cream of mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper until well combined.
Transfer the meat mixture into a 9×13 inch baking dish and spread into an even layer.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the meat mixture.
Arrange the frozen tater tots in a single layer on top of the cheese.
Bake for 35 minutes or until the tots are golden brown and crispy and the edges are bubbling.
Notes
You can add frozen peas or corn to the meat mixture for extra vegetables. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
