Tator Tot Casserole

This is another one that I've had since Livi was little. It's one of those meals that kids just seem to like. Maybe it's the tator tots on top....I'm not sure...We usually eat it with a little A-1 or ketchup on the side :)

Tator Tot Casserole

1 lb. ground beef
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
1 (2 lb.) bag frozen tator tots
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (I always use more because we like cheese :)

Optional: add fresh or frozen peas &/or chopped carrots (I usually add peas or a package of frozen mixed vegetables)

Cook ground beef & drain.
Put cooked ground beef into bottom of a greased 13 x 9 x 2 pan.
Spread soup over meat.
Add vegetables if using.
Cover with cheese.
Top with tator tots.

Cover & bake at 350 for 45 min. Then uncover and bake another 15 min.
