Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

1 (28 ounce) can baked beans
6 -8 hot dogs
4 cups tater tots
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

Steps:

Set your oven to 450.
Dump your can of baked beans (we use Bush's vegetarian) into a casserole dish. (We use a medium sized glass bowlish looking -- thing). Set the dish aside.
Cut up your hotdogs into bite sized pieces and throw those into your casserole dish and mix until dogs are well coated with baked bean sauce.
Cover the bean and dog mixture with tatertots. We usually use a couple handfuls. Use as many as you'd like. Just make sure to cover the mixture completely.
Place the casserole dish in the oven for 1/2 an hour or until tater tots are golden brown. When Redneck Casserole is all cooked up, turn off the oven and sprinkle the top with cheese.
Redneck Casserole is completely done when cheese is melted and you just can't take it anymore -- dig in! (You can mix pretty much anything with this dish. Sour cream, ketchup, mustard, hot sauce, etc.).

REDNECK MAC 'N CHEESE CASSEROLE

Redneck Mac 'n Cheese Casserole image

This recipe intrigued us ... would we like the pimentos and onion? We loved it! This is not your typical mac and cheese. It's rich and creamy from the cream of mushroom/mayo mixture. Pimentos and onions add tons of flavor. Make sure to add the Ritz crackers with the cheese - it's a delicious topping. If you want something...

Ingredients

8 oz uncooked elbow macaroni
1 can(s) cream of mushroom soup
1/2 c milk
1 c mayonnaise (not Miracle Whip)
3 Tbsp butter, melted
1 Lg. jar(s) (or 2 small jars) pimento, diced (do not drain); to those of you that say, "I don't like pimento," the taste is mild and fantastic in this dish. Frankly, I don't care for pimento either, but in this dish it just works!
3 Tbsp onions, chopped small (I have also used dried onions in a pinch)
salt to taste and lots of black pepper
8-16 oz cheese, sharp cheddar - grated - (if i'm not using the ritz crackers on the top, i use 16 oz and save about 1/2 for the top)
2 c Ritz cracker crumbs (really good addition, but you can omit and just put grated cheese on top before cooking)

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 375°. Cook macaroni according to directions, drain and set aside.
2. In large bowl mix cream of mushroom soup w/ 1/2 cup milk.
3. Save some grated cheese for the top. Except Ritz crackers, macaroni, and cheese for top, add all other ingredients. Mix well by hand.
4. Add cooked macaroni.
5. Lightly stir until all macaroni is coated.
6. Pour into 9 x 13 casserole dish.
7. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top.
8. Add Ritz cracker crumbs if you wish. (Makes it really good!)
9. Cook at 375° till it bubbles about 25-35 minutes.

REDNECK CASSEROLE (AKA COMFORT CASSEROLE)

Redneck Casserole (Aka Comfort Casserole) image

This recipe came about after reading a thread about Spam and Velveeta, so I thought I would come up with this, not bad if I say so myself (but I like Spam and Velveeta :)). The prep time might be a little shorter or longer, had to guess at it.

Redneck Saucy Potato Casserole image

I am gluten free, so this was an attempt to satisfy my spaghetti craving. It might not sound good to the average person, but for someone starving for a safe carb, it sounded good to me. If you don't like the thought of eating fried foods, you might consider using baked potatoes and topping those, instead. Just a thought!My family...
