- 2 cups Leftover cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
- 2 cups Frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, and green beans)
- 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 cups Frozen tater tots
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and milk. Mix until well combined.
Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, stirring again to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.
Spread the chicken and vegetable mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the mixture.
Arrange the tater tots in a single layer over the cheese, covering the entire surface of the casserole.
Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the tater tots are golden brown and crispy, and the casserole is bubbling around the edges.
Carefully remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your comforting tater tot casserole!
