We all have that quick ready to go meal. Easy crowd pleaser. Mine is actually one I grew up eating and now make it for my kids. It isn't exactly heathy (I was a casserole kid of the 80s) but now I just make it with the 96/4 ground beef and low fat or reduced salt option cream of mushroom. Add salad or some sort of quick veggie on the side. Lately I have been keeping a pack of the green beans you steam in the microwave on hand and then toss them with a garlic flavored grapeseed oil. All you need are those few items and I always keep them stocked. I thought it would be fun to share. Yall play along and post your favorite "Go To" meal in comments : )
Tator Tot Casserole
Brown 1 lb ground beef. Salt and pepper to taste.
Once cooked mix in 1 can cream of mushroom. Also add a dash of worcestershire if you like it.
Spread in casserole dish and layer Tater Tots (on occasion I have realized I am out of tater tots and used french fries or hashbrowns or whatever frozen potato I have) on top. Cook in oven according to Tater Tot directions. I also like to sprinkle shredded cheese on top before cooking. My mom puts the cheese underneath the potatoes so whatever floats your boat!
That's it. This is a recipe for a small 8×8 or 9×9 casserole dish. LOVE it.

Yum! We’ll have to try that. My go-to is Chicken & Rice casserole.
Oven to 375. In a casserole dish mix one can cream of mushroom (I like the one with garlic), 1 cup water, 1 cup rice, 1 tbsp. butter (sometimes do, sometimes, don’t), 1/2 packet Lipton onion soup mix. Combine ingredients. Lay one pound chicken breasts on top, push down a little. Can use the tenders too. Bake for 90 minutes. I use a round
1 1/2 qt. dish. Small square would be fine too. Serve with salad and veggie. Can sneak brown rice into this and kids don’t seem to notice.

I just taken a look at your page here and noticed that the header area on the top is showing as a black square. Is it supposed to be like that? Good post also.health Weight loss
