I'm not sure about this recipe. It seems like it would be too heavy.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover turkey or chicken. I also like to add some chopped vegetables to the filling.

I've made this casserole several times and it's always a hit. I like to use a variety of cheeses in the filling, and I always add some chopped bacon.

This casserole was a disaster! The tater tots were soggy and the filling was watery. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of tater tots, but I loved this casserole! The filling was so creamy and flavorful, and the tater tots added a nice crispy texture.
