Cowboy Casserole (Tater Tot Casserole)

round beef and vegetables in a creamy sauce topped with golden tater tots – it’s the perfect weeknight dinner!

Ingredients

 

1 pound lean ground beef (or ground turkey)

½ onion diced

15 ounces canned corn drained

10.75 ounces condensed cream of mushroom soup (1 can)

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

½ cup milk

¼ cup sour cream

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon onion powder

salt and pepper to taste

20 ounces frozen tater tots (1 bag)

 

Instructions

 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until beef is no longer pink.

Drain grease, then stir in the corn, soup, 1/2 cup cheese, milk, sour cream, and seasonings.

Pour beef mixture into a 9 x 13 inch baking pan.

Top with frozen tater tots (try to keep them in a single layer) and then sprinkle remaining cheese on top.

Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and tater tots are thoroughly cooked.

Notes

You can also use a can of green beans in place of the canned corn.

1 Tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce is good in this recipe too. Just add it in with the seasonings.
