Ingredients:
Ground Beef (1 lb): Provides a rich and savory foundation. For lighter or vegetarian versions, consider ground turkey, chicken, or plant-based substitutes.
Onion (1 medium, chopped): Brings natural sweetness and complexity. Prefer yellow onions, though white or red are also suitable.
Garlic (2 cloves, minced): Infuses a robust, aromatic flavor. Fresh is best, but garlic powder is an acceptable alternative.
Cream of Mushroom Soup (1 can): Offers creaminess and cohesion. Cream of chicken or celery are possible alternatives.
Frozen Mixed Vegetables (1 cup): Adds color and nutrition with carrots, peas, corn, and green beans. Substitute with any preferred mix of fresh or frozen vegetables.
Shredded Cheddar Cheese (1 cup): Delivers a creamy, cheesy layer. Mix with mozzarella or Colby jack for added flavor.
Frozen Tater Tots (1 bag): Provides a crispy, golden topping that defines this casserole.
