This recipe is my version of the tater tot casserole that is out there. My family loves the version I came up with as it uses a cream of cheddar soup instead of the standard cream of mushroom. You will need the following ingredients:
Recipe:
1/2 cup of onion, finely diced
1/4 cup of bell pepper, finely diced
1 pound of ground chuck
1 fresh tomato, diced into small pieces
1 can of cream of cheddar soup
1 – 2 cups of shredded colby jack cheese
1 package of tater tots
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 teaspoon of longhorn seasoning (my recipe linked below)
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
