As a mother of four, I love filling meals that are easy to make. Casseroles make perfect dinners that I can whip up quickly. Filled with savory beef seasoned with onion, garlic, and Worcestershire sauce and topped with crispy tater tots, this tater tot casserole is a new favorite in my house. Preparing the dish takes about twenty minutes, and the entire meal is ready to serve and eat in less than an hour. Tater tot casserole is a definite favorite in The Parenting Patch household!
