Tater Tot Casseroles
Ground beef, sausage and cheese make this tater tot casserole with green beans a crowd-pleaser. Cayenne pepper and hot Italian sausage give it a pleasant kick. —Ryan Jones, Chillicothe, Illinois

Made this casserole the other night and everyone loved it! I used a bag of frozen mixed vegetables instead the frozen green beans and canned corn and used all ground beef since that's what I had on hand. Super easy for a weeknight, and a great way to use up those frozen tots in the freezer!
Great recipe, I made half and used just one can of soup. Easily adapts to your preferences for vegetables and seasonings. Minnesota Nice!
oh myyyy goodness this sounds ah-mazzing!I will make this when there is a family get together. wonder if this'll remind me of my family's meals in Minnesota. I too will spike up the spices as that is one thing I notice often when reading recipes from TOH. to me I don't compute the idea of 1/4t anything. but that's just me I love robust flavors as my tastebuds are not up to snuff.
So on this recipe you had me at tater tot's, very good recipe, i like flavor to jump out just a little bit more, so I'm going to make this again, and as I noticed there was not a lot of spice to it I added some Mrs. Dash the first time around which I will do again but add even more in with the meat mixture, ground pepper on top of the tater tot's will help bring more flavor and instead of the frozen green beans which I found to still kind of have a frozen taste to them, I think I'll go with the Can Green beans, and also add some chopped bell pepper with the onion, I think this will make the flavor pop A tad bit more, thanks for the recipe, got a love those tater tot's!.... I will be making seven of these casseroles this coming week to take to A church get together, I'm thinking this will be a winner!!
I made this delicious recipe last weekend It s absolutely out of this world. I froze half of it. Hoping it will be as good or better. Don't change to much or you will miss this DELISH dish.....
My husband loved this! I used white cheddar (I don't used foods colored with Annatto) and frozen corn and frozen peas, thawed (instead of canned corn and frozen green beans). My grown sons each took home half a casserole. A definite keeper!
Excellent! I just made one casserole instead of two, so I cut the recipe in half. I still used 2 cans of soup though. I also added 1 TB of worcestshire sauce.
Fantastic, freezes well and lends itself to easy adaptations with different spices.
This was great! I made a couple of changes as well. Instead of cayenne pepper, I used pepper jack cheese. We don't like frozen beans so I used 1 can whole kernal corn, 1 cream style and a large can of mushrooms. Yum! Thank you for a really good new favorite.
The family loved this. I used cream of mushroom soup because that is what I had on hand. Also halved the recipe just to make 1 casserole.
