Pizza Tot Casserole
Most of us remember eating “Tater Tot Casserole” growing up. It seems that everybody’s mom had their own version. It usually consisted of some sort of cream of whatever soup, ground beef, a veggie – usually corn or green beans and tater tots. While that version is great, I personally think this casserole is better! My family just loves it …. and yours will too! It’s super easy to make and is a nice variation of the classic! Enjoy!

Jamie, Is this recipe okay to divide up and freeze half for later and cook half now?
Although I have never done it, I would imagine that it would be fine to do! I would suggest saving the mixture separately and thawing it before putting it in a casserole and topping with cheese and tater tots – then proceeding as directed. I would love to hear how it turns out for you!
