Sloppy Joe Tater Tot Casserole
Description
This casserole starts with browning ground beef combined with diced red bell pepper and sweet onion for a savory base. Adding canned corn and sloppy joe sauce mixed with cream cheese creates a creamy and flavorful filling that binds the ingredients together well.
The meat mixture is spread in a baking dish, layered with half the grated cheddar cheese for melting richness, and topped with tater tots arranged in a single layer. Covered with the remaining cheese, the casserole is baked at a high temperature until the tater tots turn crispy and golden, and the cheese is bubbly.
Sprinkling chopped chives on top after baking adds a fresh, mild flavor and a pop of color. This casserole delivers a combination of textures from the creamy, saucy meat filling to the crunchy tater tot topping, suitable as a satisfying main dish.
