  • 1 white onion
  • ½ tablespoon garlic powder
PREPARATION
  1. Preheat your oven to 350∞ F.
  2. Cook your ground beef in a large saucepan on medium heat for 6 minutes.(or make ground Tofu https://nannykimsrecipes.blogspot.com/2014/10/ground-tofu-filling.html
  3. Dice your white onion and add it to your beef. Cook for 6 more minutes or until the beef has browned and is cooked all the way through.
  4. Strain out excess fat from your saucepan.
  5. Mix ground Tofu, cream of mushroom soup, cooked onions, peas and garlic powder in large bowl and then spread in 13 by 9 casserole.
  6. Sprinkle cheddar cheese across the top of the casserole so that it forms an even layer on top of your ingredients.
  7. Add tater tots on top of the layer of cheese. Make sure you arrange them evenly, covering the entire casserole because this is going to be your crust. It is also helpful for serving purposes to arrange the tater tots in an even grid.
  8. Place dish in the oven and bake for 50 minutes, or until the tater tots begin to turn golden brown.
  9. Let cool and enjoy
  10. See optional below

Ps optional stuff—another good recipe or ideas here https://www.chelseajoyeats.com/can-free-tater-tot-casserole/print/78918/

I like the addition of corn, string beans and peas and sage and thyme and extra mushrooms. A bit of red wine vinegar too. Beef broth is nice too if not vegetarian.
