Tater Tot Casserole

 

Ingredients:

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 1-pound package tater tots
• 2 10-ounce cans condensed cream of mushroom soup (or 3 cans if you want it extra creamy)
• 1 or 2 14-ounce cans vegetables (whole-kernel corn, green beans, etc.)
• Onion and garlic powder (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
While the oven is preheating, brown the ground beef (seasoning to taste as you cook) and drain off the grease.
Spread the beef in the bottom of a 2- to 2½-quart baking dish.
Drain the liquid off the vegetables and spread them over the meat.
Using a rubber spatula, spread the cans of soup over the top of the vegetables and meat. Use the soup as is, straight from the can. Do not mix it with anything.
Arrange a layer of tater tots over the top of that.
Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 50 minutes.
