Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef or swap with ground turkey
- 10.5 ounce cream of mushroom soup or cream of chicken soup
- 1 can corn drained
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 16 ounce frozen tater tots
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese or use colby jack or sharp cheddar
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a casserole dish or 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
- In a large skillet, cook the ground meat over medium-high heat until it’s fully browned and crumbled, about 7–10 minutes. If needed, drain excess grease with a slotted spoon.
- Stir in the cream of mushroom soup, corn, a sprinkle of garlic powder, onion powder, kosher salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a creamy meat mixture.
- Transfer the mixture to your prepared oven-safe skillet or baking dish. Spread into an even layer.
- Arrange the regular tater tots in a single layer across the top of the beef mixture.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly across the top of the tater tots.
- Bake uncovered for 30 to 45 minutes, or until the tater tots are golden brown and crispy and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
