Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
  • 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables
  • 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 bag (32 oz) frozen tater tots
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon paprika (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with cooking spray and set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Break it into crumbles with a wooden spoon as it cooks.

Step 3

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the ground beef. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until the onion is translucent and fragrant.

Step 4

Drain any excess grease from the skillet, then season the mixture with salt and black pepper.

Step 5

Stir in the cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, and mixed vegetables. Mix well to combine evenly.

Step 6

Pour the beef and vegetable mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out into an even layer.

Step 7

Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top of the meat and vegetable layer.

Step 8

Arrange the frozen tater tots in a single, even layer over the cheese and filling.

Step 9

Bake the hotdish in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the tater tots are golden and crispy.

Step 10

Remove the baking dish from the oven and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the crispy tater tots. Optional: sprinkle paprika on top for color.

Step 11

Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.

Step 12

Let the hotdish rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
