Here’s a classic Green Bean Tater Tot Casserole recipe—crispy, creamy, and full of comforting flavors. 🥔🥘
🥘 Green Bean Tater Tot Casserole
Ingredients (serves 6–8)
- 2 cans (14.5 oz each) green beans, drained (or 4 cups fresh/frozen, cooked)
- 1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup (or cream of chicken for variation)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 small onion, chopped (optional)
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (divided)
- 1 (32 oz) package frozen tater tots
Instructions
- Preheat oven:
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. - Prepare the filling:
In a bowl, combine drained green beans, cream of mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, chopped onion (if using), half of the shredded cheese, salt, and pepper. - Assemble casserole:
Spread the green bean mixture evenly in the baking dish. Arrange frozen tater tots in a single layer on top. Sprinkle remaining cheese over the tater tots. - Bake:
Bake uncovered for 30–40 minutes, or until tater tots are golden brown and the casserole is bubbly. - Serve:
Let cool 5 minutes before serving.
🍴 Tips & Variations
- Extra crispy topping: Broil the tater tots for 2–3 minutes at the end of baking.
- Vegetable mix-ins: Add mushrooms, corn, or cooked peas to the green bean mixture.
- Make ahead: Assemble casserole the night before and refrigerate; bake 10–15 minutes longer if cold.
- Healthier twist: Use Greek yogurt instead of cream soup and sweet potato tater tots.
If you want, I can also give a low-carb version using green beans and cheese but replacing tater tots with roasted cauliflower or turnips.
Do you want that version?
