Tater Tot Casserole

This tater tot casserole recipe is one that I have been making since I was married 25 years ago. I got it originally from a friend and then made my own changes to the original. It is one of my husbands favorite dishes.
When we were first married, I would make the whole pan all the time and then we would take the leftovers to work for lunches. I must say, I did get my fill of the casserole back then, but my hubby has never tired of it. I still surprise him with it occasionally since he loves it so much. It is one of those dishes that doesn’t photograph extremely well, but it very tasty.
The tater tots are the base of the casserole. They then get covered with corn and a creamy ground beef sauce. Finally, it’s finished off with ooey gooey melty cheese!
