I thought this was really satisfying. I sauteed some shallots in olive oil before adding in the beef. I seasoned beef with S&P, garlic powder, and then stirred in only 1/2 cup milk, and the soup. I used Campbells Low-Sodium Cream of Mushroom soup. I used broccoli instead of green beans, and sprinkled extra sharp cheddar on top of the tots. Yummy!

As far as the recipe goes, it turned out perfectly. My kids only thought it was ok and my husband and I just didn't really care for it. It was an quick and easy recipe to make. The flavor was alright. I think if I were to make soemthing like this again I would use mashed potatoes instead of tater tots and have a sort of shepards pie.

I put the tater tots on the bottom, cooked at 400 for 20 minutes and take out of oven and mashed down to form a shell. Add ground beef, layer broccoli or any vegetable add cheese and top with durkey's. Bake for 30 min at 350.

This dish is impossible to have leftovers with. Even if I increase the size of the casserole, it still disappears and the only request I have had from anyone is to "MAKE MORE next time!" I do add a couple more things to it and it is fabulous. I add a dash of white cooking wine, about a 1/4 cup of sour cream, and shredded cheese right under the tots. Makes an excellent dish. Simple and quick, this is a great recipe that anyone will love!

I tried it with both ground beef and ground turkey. With the turkey I used cream of chicken soup and my family preferred it that way.

Took some reviewers suggestions. Used 1/2 beef and 1/2 ground turkey w/ an onion, garlic, garlic powder and Worcestershire. Added some frozen corn instead of green beans and cheese on top of the meat mixture. This was good, but not to die for...I may make it again.

This recipe is a hit. I didn't use the entire amoun of sour cream and I added some skim milk. I added a little thyme to the corn flake crumb topping.

This got the thumbs up at dinner. The beef (I used ground turkey) and bean mixture beneath the tater tots is not the most appetizing-looking, but everyone seemed to like it, and it is very quick and simple. The only thing I added was salt and pepper.

Better than I expected. I used mixed veggies instead of green beans,added chopped onion to the burger and topped with cheddar cheese (still was basically the same flavored dish). It was a good, weeknight "all-in-one" dinner that dh liked. I will (occasionally) make again.

This was comfort food. I did add shredded cheese and subsituted homestyle potatoes with the tater tots. I also seasoned the ground beef with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Also added a drained can of mushrooms. Would make this again for a fast, easy meal. Thanks!

Instead of green beans I used broccoli/cauliflower mix. Also replaced ground beef with ground bear. This is an awesome recipe to use ground wild game.

My mom made this when we were kids and we loved it; however, it needs some help for "grown-ups". I added onion and garlic with the meat, and pepper and a little oregano with the soup. I also used sour cream instead of milk. It was a very simple supper!
