How To Make Cheesy Tater Tot Casserole:

Step 1: Preheat Oven and Cook Meat: Preheat your oven to 375F (190C). In a large skillet, cook the 1 pound ground beef or turkey over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat.

Step 2: Prepare Filling: Stir in the 1 can cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup, mixing well with the cooked meat. Add the 2 cups chopped broccoli to the meat mixture, stirring until evenly combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 3: Assemble Casserole Base: Transfer the meat and vegetable mixture to a 9×13 inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 4: Top and Bake: Sprinkle the 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the meat and vegetable mixture. Arrange the 1 bag of frozen tater tots in a single layer on top of the cheese.

Step 5: Bake to Perfection: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the tater tots are golden brown and crispy, and the filling is heated through and bubbly.

Step 6: Serve: Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving.
