Tater Tot Casserole
Description
This casserole starts by browning lean ground beef with diced onion until fully cooked and drained. It uses a mix of fresh or frozen vegetables for added texture and color. A sauce made from condensed cream of mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, dry mustard powder, salt, and pepper is combined for a savory, creamy base.
The dish is assembled in layers inside a slow cooker: half the tater tots at the bottom, then beef, mixed vegetables, remaining tater tots, and finally shredded cheddar cheese on top. The prepared sauce is poured over all before covering. Slow cooking on high for 3–4 hours or low for 7 hours heats through and melds ingredients, while the tater tots become golden and crispy on top.
The finished casserole offers a comforting texture contrast between creamy, savory filling and crisp potato topping. It can be served as a filling family meal or potluck dish, with the cheese adding richness and the mustard powder enhancing depth.
