Just a little bit of a conversion in changing taste up a bit but we love tater tot casserole ... you can add other things to vary this up and it's just as tasty. Corn, green beans, potato chicken creamy soup rather than mushroom. Possibilities are endless so create! Have fun with it. Hard to mess this up. Oh. And it helps to drizzle a little creamy soup on top of tater tots and sprinkle cheese on top as well. :)

Try being more descriptive in your cooking directions. Learning to spell before posting helps you look less uneducated.

This is a great recipe! My adjustments were 2 cans of golden mushroom soup, the beef and soup on the bottom, and added a can of mushrooms. I want to adjust it a bit more but I was happy how delicious and simple this recipe is

Made this tonight with a friend for our signifigant others. We added veggies to the beef, as well as substituting cream of mushroom with cream of chicken. We also added bacon ontop of the top layer of cheese. It came out amazing. Would make again!

amommy42 @cook_3060137
this was tastier than I'd anticipated. I did saute the onions first as well as a few mushrooms. I also reversed the order to have the tots on top so they'd crisp. my kids devoured it. will make again for sure.

I use a can of cheddar cheese sauce instead of cream of celery. Cheesier! Plus I put the ground beef down then top it off w/the rest of the ingredients. Topping it all off w/grated cheddar cheese.

my mother used to make this when I was a child. I hated it!! it had to be one of my most despised foods ever...now as an adult, I. realized she didn't know how to cook!! even this simple dish....
my only advice is to add lots of soup to make it really creamy. I personally only use "golden mushroom soup". it makes all the difference in the recipe.
I hate to admit that my family and I love this dish....
also, I use two kinds of cheese. a good brand of Cheddar and a creamy melty white cheese!!! and lots of it. also for the last 5 minutes I put it on broil so the tots get crispy...
debbipoo
debbipoo @cook_3246541

jjrose362
jjrose362 @cook_3436074
many variations. I use beef, green beans and corn mixed with the meat and soup. I use one can of cheese soup and one of cream of mushroom or cream of celery. I add the cheese on top near the end of the cooking. last 10 minutes or so.

Sorry I didn't like this one at all. I love cheese but way too much cheese in this...and I didn't know too much cheese was even possible. The soup and the cheese didn't mesh for me. and the cook time was too long. not sure why everyone is loving this. We were not even able to eat it. Had to throw it away.

I have a very large family and I'm always looking for good recipes that will feed all of us without spending a fortune. this is a great meal!! The whole family enjoyed it. I added garlic salt to the meat mix while it was cooking for a little extra flavor and it was so yummy!!! I will be making this again, even my picky 3 year old ate it! :positive

This was delicious! Added one chopped red bell pepper and some frozen sweet corn, along with the chopped onion, as I browned 2 pounds of ground beef. Seasoned the meat with garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Used one can each of golden mushroom, cream of mushroom, and nacho cheese soup and a little milk. Put the tots on top so they got crispy. Will definitely make it again! ~(o.o)~
