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!

This looks good! I hate mushrooms so would leave those out and would probably add lots of garlic. Thanks for sharing, just pinned!

Yep, my kids most certainly would love this! I think I would too! Gosh, haven't had tater tots in years! Thanks for the memories and for sharing at One Creative Weekend!
This looks delicious. I make something very similar, but use egg noodles instead of tater tots. But, definitely trying the tater tots next time!
