Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 32 oz tater tots
- 2 5-oz cans canned tuna
- 1 10.5-oz can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 10.5-oz can cream of celery soup
- 0.5 cup milk
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, cream of celery soup, milk, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, black pepper, and onion powder. Mix until well combined.
Drain the canned tuna and flake it with a fork. Add the tuna, frozen peas and carrots, and half of the tater tots into the soup mixture. Gently stir until everything is evenly coated.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Arrange the remaining tater tots in a single layer on top of the mixture, covering the entire surface.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the tater tots are golden and crispy and the filling is bubbly around the edges.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
