Recipe Instructions
Preheat oven to 350℉.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add in oil and onions. Cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
Next, add in your garlic. Stir. Cook until fragrant, about a minute. Add in other vegetables. Cook for a few minutes or until softened.
Add in the ground beef and break up into small pieces with a wooden spoon. Season with salt and pepper. Once beef is browned, remove pan from heat and add in the cream of mushroom soup. Stir until combined.
In a greased casserole dish, spoon in your beef mixture, spreading out evenly. Next, top with cheese. Then line the top evenly with the tater tots.
Bake for 20 minutes, then bump your oven up to broil. Broil until tots have become slightly browned and crispy. (Watch carefully as broil time can depend upon the oven).
