I grew up with this recipe and even though it might look a little weird, there's something about meat with tater tots that is just so good....and really what kid doesn't love eating tots for dinner? My kids love this meal.
Today's Ingredients:
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound ground beef
1 can string beans, drained
1 can cream of mushroom soup
Milk
1/2-2/3 package tater tots
To lighten it up:
Use ground turkey for beef
Skim Milk
Light Cream of Mushroom Soup
Cubed hashbrowns instead of tatertots
 |
Cook beef, onion, and garlic until the onion is translucent and soft and the beef is cooked through. Season with salt and pepper. |
 |
Once the beef is cooked through, drain off excess fat if needed. Add the cream of mushroom soup, green beans and 1/3-1/2 can of milk. I would add less milk at first and then add more if needed. |
 |
Mix it all together. I know it looks gross, but the end result is good! |
 |
Put in a 8x8 pan or something smaller than a 9x13 pan. I've even cooked it in a round baking dish before and that works too. |
 |
Add 1/2-2/3 bag of tater tots on top of the casserole. Mine was a smaller bag so I almost used all of it. |
 |
Bake at 350 for 30 min. or until the tater tots are browned. |

So delish! |
