TEXAS TATER TOT CASSEROLE
Not sure which website I found this, but I recently made it and it was good. I did omit the Nacho Sauce I wasn't sure about the Nacho Cheese Sauce and it turned out fine. Next time I will look at another store for the Nacho Sauce. It's a good alternative to the usual Tater Tot Casseroles.
