Tater Tot Casserole

This is a veggied up version of the kid-friendly classic. To make it even healthier, use half of the tater tots by spacing them further apart and cut out the cheese.

Ingredients:

1 lb very lean ground beef (or bison, which is what I cook with)

3 stalks celery

3 carrots

1 onion
Salt and Pepper to taste

1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup milk

1/2 cup reduced fat shredded cheese

16 oz frozen tater tots

Saute veggies until tender. Add burger, salt and pepper. Cook until meat is no longer pink. Add soup and milk. Place meat mixture in a 1.5 qt casserole dish. Sprinkle on cheese. Arrange tater tots on top. Bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes. Yield: 6 servings.
