Ingredients:

226 g 1/2 lb. ground beef (85/15)

150 g 1 cup corn

158 g 2/3 cup condensed cream of mushroom soup

113 g 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded and divided

80 ml 1/3 cup whole milk

60 ml 1/4 cup sour cream

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

113 g 1/2 cup bacon, cooked and crumbled

907 g 32 oz. tater tots

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F).

In a large skillet, cook ground beef over medium heat until browned.

Add corn, cream of mushroom soup, 1/2 cup of cheese, milk, sour cream, onion powder, black pepper, and bacon to the skillet and mix well.

In a 9×13-inch baking dish, layer the beef mixture, followed by a layer of cheese, and finally, line up the tater tots on top.

Bake the casserole uncovered for 40-45 minutes or until the tater tots are golden brown and crispy.
Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and bake for another 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Serve hot and enjoy!
