- 30 ounces canned green beans, drained
- 10.5 ounces cream of mushroom soup
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cups milk
- 1 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 cups crispy fried onions (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with melted butter or non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and well incorporated.
Add the drained green beans to the mixing bowl and toss until evenly coated in the sauce.
Pour the green bean mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the green bean mixture.
Arrange the frozen tater tots in a single layer across the top of the casserole, ensuring they cover the surface evenly.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the tater tots are golden and crispy.
Remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top. If using, add the crispy fried onions as a topping.
Return the casserole to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow the casserole to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Tater Tot Green Bean Surprise!
