This recipe comes from CopyKat Recipes. They have a bunch of copycat recipes they post from different restaurants and such. This one I think is just a family favorite budget stretcher! It was very easy to throw together and the family loved it! The following recipe is exactly as it comes from their site. I added a few notes at the end!1 lb. Ground Beef
3 T. Minced Onion
2 T. Italian Seasoning
1 t. Garlic Powder
1 t. Onion Powder
2 C. Shredded Hash Browns, thawed
1 can Cream of Chicken Soup
½ C. Milk
1½ C. shredded cheese (Velveeta tastes best)
Frozen Tater Tots
Brown the ground beef with the onion, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder; drain fat. In a large mixing bowl, combine hash browns, soup, milk, and cheese, stirring well. Add ground beef. Place in a greased 2 QT casserole dish. Place tater tots in a single layer over entire casserole. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes, or until thoroughly heated and tater tots are crispy.
I served this with a dollop of sour cream on top and Cookie Salad {go to salads on the side bar for recipe}. As always I doubled it and used a 9x13 casserole dish. I also didn't get what they meant by "Velveeta works best" so I used 1½ C. shredded cheddar and 16 oz. of Velveeta processed cheese, cubed it, and added it to the mixture of hamburger and everything else!! It melted and was very cheesy! It was a very filling meal and will make great leftovers for lunch tomorrow! Hal enjoyed every bite!!
