Tatertot casserole recipe

You're referring to a hot dish, which is the state meal of Minnesota. It's ground beef, mixed vegetables and cream of mushroom soup as a base topped with tots and baked. Just use your imagination and wing it. I would probably brown off some beef or breakfast sausage, make a roux with the fat, add in some onion garlic and peppers, add milk for the base, top with tots and bake. Add a little cheese at the end.

If you can find the shredded hashbrowns in the freezer section, it turns out better than using tots I've found.

Pound of hot ground sausage browned, add in onions and sauté until they're soft, one bag of hashbrownsm melt a stick of butter, and a large family size can of cream of chicken and a little milk, maybe 1/4 cup, and stir it all together and bake at 375 for a half hour. Top with shredded cheese of choice, we use Colby Jack, and back in the oven until melted.

I can't stand Ore-Ida products.. I don't know what they do to the potatoes to give it that terrible taste... McCain potatoes products are much better... Don't know if they make tater tots...
