Busy. That's almost always the word I use when someone asks how I'm doing. I wake up at 6 AM every morning - although the past two mornings I slept in till seven because I'm so darn tired - and usually go to bed around 11:30. According to my Fitbit, I average 6 hours and 18 minutes of sleep. That's not good for a girl like me because nine hours of sleep is when I'm at my best! Since I'm a busy, tired full-time babysitter, I like simple meals that us grown-ups will love as much as the kiddos! For me, simple doesn't stop at a few steps or a few ingredients. Simple has to have minimal dishes because I HATE dishes. That's why I love my One-Pot-Tots. It takes two dishes: a pot and a spatula. (Heck yes!) So, enough of my talking, let's get to the recipe!
One-Pot-Tots
One-Pot-Tots
1 1/2 pounds ground beef (or whatever meat you prefer)
1 can Cream of Mushroom soup
3/4 cup frozen peas (optional - I don't usually. Ha!)
1 bag frozen tater tots
Shredded cheese
1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Cook meat over medium-high heat until it is completely done. I use a large ceramic coated Dutch oven. Make sure it's something that you can put in the oven, otherwise it won't be "one pot."
3. Stir in the soup and peas. Let this cook together for a few minutes. Remove from heat and cover the top with tater tots. I always end up using a little less than a full bag, but it will just depend on the size of pot you're using.
4. Cover the top with the cheese of your choice. My favorite is Medium Cheddar or Colby Jack.
5. Bake 45 minutes, uncovered. I let mine sit for 15-20 minutes before serving.
That's it! I hope you all enjoy this as much as I do!
