Ingredients:1 pound lean ground beef
1 small onion, diced
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 can of cream of mushroom soup
½ cup sour cream
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (I used a blend with green beans, carrots, peas, and corn)
8 ounces cheddar cheese, freshly shredded, divided
32-oz bag frozen tater tots
Feel free to add more or less veggies to make this recipe to suit your family’s tastes. I use a blend with green beans, carrots, peas, and corn but you can use whichever mixture of veggies you like. This casserole is great for hiding all kinds of veggies in to get the kids to eat their five a day!

Instructions:

In a large skillet cook ground beef, onion, and garlic until beef is cooked through. Drain if needed.
Add cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and Worcestershire sauce to the ground beef and mix thoroughly.
Stir in vegetables.
Place the beef and vegetable mixture in the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish. Top with 4 oz of freshly shredded cheddar cheese.
Place frozen tater tots, in a single layer, on top of the cheese layer. Depending on the size/shape of your dish, you may have some leftover.
Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and top with remaining 4 oz freshly shredded cheddar cheese. Bake for another 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted
Enjoy!

The idea for this recipe came from my mom who would make it for me when I was younger. She would use canned soup and frozen tater tots but I wanted something healthier so I made some adjustments.
