Two things that you probably didn't think would be in the same recipe, right? Wrongo. This stuff is delicious. And all it takes are 4 ingredients. But I can't take credit for this one; it is a recipe from my fiancé's mom but it is one that I will always turn to when I need a quick meal!
Tater-Tot Casserole
1lb lean ground beef
2/3 can cream of mushroom soup
1 c. shredded cheddar cheese
1 small package of frozen tater tots
Steps:
1. Brown the ground beef in a sauté pan on the stove. Salt and pepper to taste. (I add a little onion powder to the beef for enhanced flavor but if you don't have any on hand, don't worry about it!)
2. Drain the ground beef and pour into a bowl (or back in the pan you browned it in)
3. Mix in cream of mushroom soup
4. Spread in an 11x7 pan (13x9 is more standard so if you only have this pan that is just fine!)
4. Sprinkle cheese over the meat mixture
5. Top with frozen tater tots (I cover the entire top with the tots!)
6. Bake at 350° for 1 hour (get some studying done while you are waiting!)
Time Breakdown:
1. Casserole filling prep: 10 minutes
2. Casserole building: 5 minutes
3. Bake time: 1 hr
Total time: 1 hr 15 minutes (but an hour of that is waiting around, so you can get some things done ;-)
