Grandma's Meat and Tater Hotdish

Very good hotdish recipe from my late grandmother that can also be eaten as a meal with a salad.

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
• 0.75 cup sour cream
• 1 (15 ounce) can green beans, drained and liquid reserved, divided
• 1 processed cheese (such as Velveeta®), sliced
• 1 pound frozen bite-sized potato nuggets (such as Tater Tots®)

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain grease. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, combine condensed soup, sour cream, and green bean liquid in a small bowl. Set sauce aside.
4. Add green beans to the cooked beef and onions; mix to combine and transfer to a casserole dish. Top with sliced cheese and cover with frozen potato nuggets. Pour sauce over top.
5. Bake in the preheated oven potatoes are browned and sauce is bubbly, about 1 hour.
