Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a large casserole dish.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook the onion in the hot oil until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Mix the cooked onions, tater tots, mushroom soup, sour cream, butter, pepper, and salt together in a large bowl until the tater tots are evenly coated.

Steps:

• In a hot skillet scramble fry the onion, minced beef and garlic - breaking up all lumps.
• Reduce the heat to 50% and add the vegetables, make sure they are chopped rather small (mexi-beans or kidney beans can be added if you so wish to this stage) and taco seasoning, fry for another 2-4 of minutes (until the taco seasoning become fragrant).
• Pour meat mixture into a greased 20x20 inch ceramic/pyrex casserole dish with high sides.
• In a large bowl, whisk the salsa, sour cream and creamed cheese (which has been well softened) and pour over the meat.
• Place tater tots over creamy mixture in a single layer all over (my son loves this job). Top with cheese (he likes this job too).
• Bake at 375oF (180oC) for 30 minutes.

CREAMY TACO CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Brown the ground beef with the onions and garlic.
• When all the pink is out of the meat add the seasoning mix, water, cream cheese, corn, 1/2 the olives and Taco sauce.
• Let this simmer for 3 to 4 minutes.
• Crush the Fritos chips (I used the chili flavored ones, but plain will work fine).
• In an 8x12 casserole dish, layer 1/2 of the Fritos, then 1/2 the meat filling, and then 1/2 the cheese (regular cheddar will work also, I just prefer the combined cheese flavors).
• Repeat the layers and top with the remaining olives.
• Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes, or until it is warmed completely and the cheese is melted.
• To serve, you can top with shredded lettuce, the diced green onions (tops included), diced tomatoes and a shot of the sour cream.
