    This is a great recipe.I made one similar to this one.1-2 cans cream of chicken soup, 1/2 -1 cup milk, 1 small can mushrooms or 1/2 cup fresh chopped, hamburger,veggies of your choice, tater tots or broken hash browns.You can also use 1 can each of c.chicken & c.mushroom soup,& leave mushrooms out. The Dollar Tree sells hash browns -5-6 in pack, & also chicken thighs-3 in a pack for $1.00 each -where they have the frozen food sections.I stock up on these every month-It saves a lot.They also have small pks. of bay scallops, great for mixing in with noodles or rice & sauce.And boneless chicken breasts-clear see -through pkg. 4-6 in each-but I haven’t tried those yet. Does any one know how to make homemade dry Jerk seasoning? I bought some once & went to every store -even Ocean StateJob Lot & Christmas Tree Shop- but can’t find any brand anywhere.Thanks.

    I make this all the time. It’s great and a little cheaper :)with ground turkey too. Never tried it with the onion soup mix before though. Gonna try that next time. Thanks Tawra.

    This is very similar to my Easy Beef Casserole recipe. My recipe doesn’t call for dry onion soup mix, though that sounds good, too.

    My recipe originally called for 1/2 of a 2 lb. bag tater tots, 1/2 of a 1 lb. bag of frozen mixed veggies, cream of chicken soup, browned ground beef, salt and pepper to taste, and cheese on top. (I usually stir the browned meat and soup together and spread on tots.) Recently, the veggies have been downsized to 12 oz., and I always liked more tater tots. So when I made this last week I used the whole 2 lb. bag of tater tots and whole 12 oz. frozen veggies. My recipe recommends thawing the tater tots and veggies before starting this recipe, and that makes it much quicker to heat.

    Since dried onion soup mix is not gluten free do you have any suggestions for substitutions?

    I have been making this for years, I use ground beef, cream of chicken soup, frozen veggies, and have started adding some frozen green chillies. I start by browing the burger, then stir the soup, frozen veggies, and chills into the same pan. This shortens the cooking time. I put a layer of shredded cheddar down and then completely cover the top with Tater ‘Tots. I have never cooked this more than 35 – 40 minutes till the tots are crunchy on the top. My sister-in-law adds a package of cream cheese.

      Everyone’s will look different – you can use different veggies or like in this picture you can garnish with tater tots – you could also sprinkle with cheese. We use pictures that are general and sometimes they can’t be exact.

    Are the tots mixed in as well or just layered on top?

      You can do it either way. Mix it all together or mix some and layer some on top.

    Tawra, this was so easy and absolutely delicious. I used ground turkey as hubby can’t eat beef and he loved it. Your recipes never fail to delight me. Love, Sandi Jo
