Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef (see note 1)
- 1 cup onion chopped
- 1/2 cup celery chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 (10.5 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
- 1 (10.5 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup frozen cut green beans thawed (see note 2)
- 1 (32 ounce) package frozen tater tots (see note 3)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, add the ground beef, celery, onions, garlic powder, and salt and pepper to taste (I like 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper). Cook until the beef is browned and thoroughly cooked, about 6 to 8 minutes. Drain well.
- Stir in cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, and green beans. Carefully spoon the mixture into a 9-inch by 13-inch casserole dish.
- Top the mixture with the frozen potato tots. Bake uncovered until the casserole is bubbly and the tots are golden brown, about 40 to 50 minutes.
Notes
- Ground beef: I prefer 85/15 or 80/20 blends for ground beef casseroles. If you prefer, trade in ground turkey, chicken, or pork.
- Green beans: Frozen at the peak of freshness, frozen vegetables are your best bet unless you have fresh green beans in your garden or can snag some at the farmers market this week.
- Tater tots: Potato tots are traditional, but vegetable-boosted varieties are becoming widely available and are certainly trending. Feel free to use the tots made with sweet potato, broccoli, or cauliflower to sneak in a tiny bit more nutrition.
- Yield: This Tater Tot Casserole makes six dinner-sized portions, ideal for a cozy family meal.
- Storage: Store leftovers covered for up to 4 days.
