Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 32 ounces tater tots
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until the onion is softened and translucent.
Stir the frozen mixed vegetables into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until heated through. Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and paprika.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the cream of mushroom soup and sour cream. Mix until well combined, then remove from heat.
Spread the beef and vegetable mixture evenly into a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the mixture, spreading it evenly.
Arrange the frozen tater tots in a single layer on top of the cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the tater tots are crispy and golden brown.
Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the tater tots, then bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
Remove from the oven and let the hotdish cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
