Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 Tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • ¾ cup yellow onion diced
  • ½ cup celery diced
  • ½ cup carrot diced
  • 3 cloves garlic finely chopped
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 2 Tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 cup condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • ½ cup Monterey jack cheese shredded
  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese* freshly shredded
  • 30-34 frozen tater tots

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. To keep this a one-pan recipe, cook the filling in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet, or oven-safe skillet.
  2. In the skillet, over medium heat, melt butter and heat the olive oil. Once hot, add onion, celery, and carrot. Cook for 3-4 minutes, and add a pinch of salt to begin layering in the flavor.
  3. Add garlic and season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes, to taste. Stir and cook for another 3 minutes, until all the veggies are tender. Stir in frozen peas and corn.
  4. Remove from heat. Stir in the parsley and cream of mushroom soup until fully combined.
  5. If cooking in the same skillet, spread the filling evenly across the pan. Otherwise, transfer to a 2 or 3-quart baking dish. Sprinkle both kinds of cheeses on top. Then, line the tater tots across the entire top of the hotdish.
  6. Bake for 28-33 minutes until bubbly and tater tots are golden brown. Let sit 2-3 minutes before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.

Notes

  • *Look for cheese specifically labeled vegetarian, if needed. 
  • Pan Size: as shown in some of the photos, I used a fun Minnesota Cast Iron Skillet as a baking dish, and placed the rest of the filling in small ramekins. You can use an 8x8 or 9x9 glass baking dish, a 10-inch cast-iron skillet, or another smaller baking dish.
  • Double Recipe: bake in a 9x13 dish.
  • 2/28/23: updated the amount of onion from 1/2 to 3/4 cup and the carrots and celery from 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup.
