Ingredients
  

Main
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 can 10.5 oz cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 bag 32 oz frozen tater tots
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Baking dish (9x13 inches)
  • Wooden spoon or spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Oven mitts

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and diced onion. Cook until the beef is browned and the onions are translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
  4. Add the cream of mushroom soup to the skillet, stirring until well combined.
  5. Pour the beef mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  6. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese generously over the beef mixture.
  7. Arrange the frozen tater tots on top of the cheese in a single layer.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the tater tots are golden and crispy.
  9. For an extra crunch, broil the casserole for the last 2-3 minutes.

Notes

Serve with a light salad or steamed vegetables on the side.
