I thought this was a wonderfull recipe! Quick and not to difficult to make. My son just loved the fries on top didn't really care for the rest. -
BIG hit for our family!!! We used fiesta cheese soup (that's the only kind I had) and I spooned in about 1/2 lb of frozen green beans with the meat and soup mixture. I put the cheese soup under the fries (spicy wedges as that's what we had) like other reviewers suggested and sprinkled cheddar on top for the last 5 minutes of cooking too. Dinner was hot and ready in 20 minutes! :) Very good flavor! -
This was o.k. We weren't we have to have this again. But i might play with it. It seemed the fries were under cooked or cold. Mabey crisping them ahead of time? I'm not sure. We are willing to try again and re-review. Thanks for the post! -
My husband loves Tater Tot Casserole, but I am not a lover of tots. I thought that this would be a good compromise, and he wasn't disappointed. Like another reviewer, I put the cheese sauce under the fries to keep them from being soggy. Leftovers rewarmed well for lunch. This is not gourmet, but a good solid meal to be served with a veggie and salad. -
Quick and Easy! The four year old loved this recipe, it is very kid friendly. I layered the cheddar soup under the fries because I was afraid they would be soggy if I put it on top. I sprinkled it with cheese during the last five minutes. Thanks SLColman!

I am originally from Florida, near Tampa. I attended undergrad at the University of Tampa, and grad school at Auburn University. When I got married I moved to Wyoming. Talk about culture and environment shock!!
I love animals, especially dogs. We try to get rescue dogs, particularly huskies. We currently have 2 huskies - one Siberian male and one Alaskan female. Huskies have so much personality!
I am a fan of the childrens books about Winnie the Pooh. I especially love TIGGER. Actually I love just about everything Disney. One of the things I miss most from living in Florida was getting to go to Walt Disney World anytime I wanted to. It really is one of the happiest places on earth.
I love to cook and am always trying a new recipe. I also like to garden, but find it quite a challenge here in Wyoming with our long winters and dry windy short summers. I like to experiment with herbs and spices.
During the summer of 2006 I was diagnosed with PCOS and as such realized that the excess weight I was carrying was quite literally killing me. I found SparkPeople.com and was able to lose over 75 pounds now with not too much more to go. My cooking has changed some since then in that I still cook the same foods I just go about it in a much healthier way. Taste is paramount to me - so if it doesn't taste good then why bother! :)
