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 Pizza Tot 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!
