At a Chamber of Commerce meeting this morning, one of our local members raved about the following dish, that her entire family loved it, so I had to try it. But, what her family liked didn’t apply to ours. I thoroughly enjoyed the meal, but got no positive feedback from the rest of our family. So be warned before you take this recipe on.
I’m not even sure what to term it. It’s kind of a version of Shepherd’s Pie. Get 2 lbs. of ground beef, a can of cream of mushroom soup, a small can of onion crisps, a pound of green beans and a bag of frozen tater tots. Simmer the ground beef with your favorite flavorings (I like using Mesquite Liquid Smoke). Steam the green beans until tender, but not too soft.
When the ground beef is done, spread it in 11 by 17 casserole dish, layer the green beans on top, then the onion crisps, followed by the green beans. Cover this with the tater tots.
Heat the oven to the temp listed on the tater tot package. Lightly salt the potatoes. Put the mixture in the oven and cook for the time listed on tater tots.
