Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef lean
- 1/2 onion diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 15 ounce can green beans drained
- 10.75 ounce can condensed cream of mushroom soup
- 2 cups cheddar cheese shredded
- 2 cups frozen tater tots
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 375°F and lightly grease an 8- or 9-inch baking dish at least 2 inches deep.
- Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat until no pink remains and it reaches 160°F. Drain the fat.
- Add the onion and cook 4 to 5 minutes, until translucent. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, 1 minute more. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and season with salt and pepper.
- Spread the beef in the dish. Top with the cream of mushroom soup, then the green beans (season them), then the cheddar. Finish with the frozen tater tots.
- Bake 35 to 40 minutes, until the tater tots are golden brown, the cheese is melted and the center reaches 165°F. Serve right away.
Notes
Keep the cheese under the tots so they stay crisp. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours; eat within 3 to 4 days or freeze 3 to 4 months. Reheat in the oven to 165°F.
