TATER TOT GREEN BEAN SURPRISE

Steps:

• Brown ground turkey (or beef), season to taste (Johnny's Seasoning Salt is very good for this, but salt and pepper will do nicely), drain and set aside.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees.
• Line the bottom of an 11x13 rectangular baking dish with the frozen tater tots.
• Layer the browned ground meat next, then the green beans.
• In a bowl or large measuring cup mix the soup and enough milk that when mixed with the soup makes it easy to pour but not excessively runny.
• Pour mixture on top of the green beans and spread around to coat the top of the casserole.
• Top with the shredded cheddar cheese.
• Bake for 30-45 minutes until casserole is bubbly and the cheese is melted and starting to brown.
