Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of mushroom soup
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 2 cups Frozen mixed vegetables (e.g., peas, carrots, corn, green beans)
• 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 bag (32 oz) Tater tots
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 as needed Cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef until no pink remains, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.

Step 3

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the ground beef. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the onion is softened and translucent.

Step 4

Stir in the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix until well combined.

Step 5

Fold in the frozen mixed vegetables. Allow the mixture to heat through for a couple of minutes, then remove the skillet from heat.

Step 6

Spread the beef and vegetable mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.

Step 7

Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the beef mixture.

Step 8

Layer the tater tots in a single layer over the top of the cheese, covering the entire surface of the casserole.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until the tater tots are golden brown and crispy.

Step 10

Remove the casserole from the oven, sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top, and return it to the oven for another 5-7 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 11

Allow the casserole to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
