Tater Tot Casserole

firstnikonpics 023

Tator Tot Casserole... you say Tater and I'll say Tator , either way it's yummy good.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Spray Pam in casserole dish or dutch oven

1 lb lean ground beef
1 small bag tater tots
1 small box frozen peas, thawed (English peas for those in Texas)
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup milk ( I use skim)

Layer ground beef on the bottom of dish, place tots on top of beef, then the peas, mix milk with soup and pour that on top, spreading to cover.

Place in oven uncovered for 45 minutes or until ground beef is cooked to your liking.

Variations: green beans instead of peas.

I used canned peas for years but I prefer frozen peas, thawed, much better flavor.

This dish is even better as leftovers, warmed in oven or microwave.

yum! I wonder if you could do that with chicken instead of beef, and make some sort of pot pie.
I might just try it.
