My husband is more of a picky eater than myself, so finding different ways to cook things can sometimes lead to making pretty much the same thing every night, so this recipe is a nice variation of "the same thing every night" and it's delicious, too. =) I used already baked potatoes for mashed potatoes, (because I had some baked potatoes on hand that I wanted to use, and because baked mashed potatoes are delicious!) I scooped the potato out of the skin, adding a little milk, sour cream, butter, salt, pepper, a little garlic & onion powder, and a little dollop of Ranch dressing. Whipped until just slightly creamy with a hand mixer, then folded the rest more thoroughly by hand, otherwise, it will turn into glue if mixed TOO much! I used French fries instead of tater tots, because that's what I had on hand. I deep fried the fries in hot oil until crispy golden. I replaced the cream of mushroom soup with golden mushroom, because it's more flavorful, and added one can of cream of potato soup, because I don't think one can of soup is enough. Added one can of mixed veggies, and topped off with the baked mashed potatoes and a mix of 3 different cheeses. Good comfort food!
