Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 can (10.5 oz) Condensed cream of mushroom soup
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 32 ounces (1 bag) Frozen tater tots
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 as needed Vegetable oil or cooking spray
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon, for about 5-7 minutes or until browned. Drain any excess grease.

Step 3

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the cooked beef. Sauté for another 3-4 minutes until the onions become translucent and the garlic is fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the condensed cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined, then remove from heat.

Step 5

Spread the beef mixture evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Step 6

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

Step 7

Arrange the frozen tater tots in an even layer on top of the cheese. Make sure they cover the entire surface of the casserole.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Step 9

After 30 minutes, sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the tater tots. Return the casserole to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the tater tots are golden brown.

Step 10

Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.

Step 11

Serve hot and enjoy your Uvm Tater Tot Casserole!
