Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound kielbasa sausage
- 32 ounces tater tots
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 medium, diced onion
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 tablespoons (optional for garnish) chopped parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Slice the kielbasa into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Add the kielbasa to the skillet and cook until browned, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
Add the cooked onions and kielbasa to the mixture. Stir in 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared casserole dish.
Top the mixture with an even layer of frozen tater tots, arranging them in a single layer.
Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the tater tots.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the tater tots are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, before serving.
