Tater Tot Casserole
"My most favorite dish I ever made. It was handed down from my mom who made it slightly different. My family begs me to make it. It is very easy to make and prep time is not long. One bite and you will be hooked."

I really liked this recipe. (Growing up, my mom always made this but used the celery soup version, which I love too.) Made as written, but reduced to a half recipe. Super yummy comfort food! -
I was looking for a new weeknight meal that was fast and easy and I came across this recipe-my kids love tater tots and corn so I was hoping it would be a big hit-was I right!! This is delicious and my kids ate 2 serving each-more mommy!!! Thanks for a great meal!!! -
This was very good and the family really enjoyed it. I added some scallions to the ground beef and I used peas in place of the corn. The next time I will use peas and corn. Thanks for this recipe.

Thank You for this recipe, I used green beans not the corn, but will try it next time! But we loved it and had lunches for the next day. -
I made this as written except I added some chedder cheese on top. This had a good taste and was easy to make. Mine was a bit soupy for my taste but I will be making this again. Thanks for the recipe

My name is Sandra Bins. I am from Georgetown, TX. I have 2 sons, ages 5 and 11. I have been married for 4 years but we have been together for 15 years. Most of my cooking I have picked up from my mother and grandmother. They did not cook new things just the same ones over and over. When I got my own place and started to experiment, I learned that I can really make things turn out quite well. I love cookbooks, I don't really have a favorite one, more like a favorite 10. I like to take a recipe and find the variations in other cookbooks and mix things up. My husband, who is from Austin, Texas, likes things spicy and a little wild. But I tend to keep things a little mild. My sons like the fact that there is always something new on the table. We eat as a family every night no matter what. If there is something that my kids don't like, there is always hot pockets....lol. I love to cook mostly on the stove top. I am not a baker, but on occasion I can cook a mean casserole. I try not to depend on casseroles, they are loaded with fat and tend to really heat the house up. For fun my family likes to hike and bike. I am a stay at home mom/assistant cub master. I like what I do but as soon as my youngest starts school I am going back to work.
