Steps:
- Brown ground turkey (or beef), season to taste (Johnny's Seasoning Salt is very good for this, but salt and pepper will do nicely), drain and set aside.
- Heat oven to 425 degrees.
- Line the bottom of an 11x13 rectangular baking dish with the frozen tater tots.
- Layer the browned ground meat next, then the green beans.
- In a bowl or large measuring cup mix the soup and enough milk that when mixed with the soup makes it easy to pour but not excessively runny.
- Pour mixture on top of the green beans and spread around to coat the top of the casserole.
- Top with the shredded cheddar cheese.
- Bake for 30-45 minutes until casserole is bubbly and the cheese is melted and starting to brown.
Tips:
- Prep Ingredients Ahead of Time: To save time during cooking, wash and trim the green beans and cut the bacon slices in advance.
- Use Frozen Tater Tots or Make Your Own: If you're short on time, use frozen tater tots. If you prefer homemade tater tots, prepare them before starting the casserole.
- Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When cooking the bacon, avoid overcrowding the pan. This will help prevent the bacon from steaming instead of frying.
- Cook the Green Beans Until Tender-Crisp: Cook the green beans until they are tender-crisp, but not mushy. This will ensure that they retain their vibrant color and texture.
- Use a Medium-High Heat: When cooking the bacon and the casserole, use medium-high heat. This will help to brown the bacon and create a crispy crust on the casserole.
- Season to Taste: Taste the casserole before serving and adjust the seasoning as desired. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or garlic powder.
Conclusion:
Tater Tot Green Bean Surprise is a quick and easy casserole that is perfect for busy weeknights. It's a great way to use up leftover tater tots and green beans, and it's sure to be a hit with the whole family.
