So having such a crazy life, I thought I would try some crockpot meal ideas. So last week when my husband was out of town and I had to be everywhere at the same time I tried a few dishes. I did make chicken cordon bleu in the crockpot (recipe later), but the hit was the tator tot casserole. Since I went to work later I was able to create this before I left and the kids had a yummy dinner waiting for them, since mom and dad were both gone for the evening. I hate working nights when hubby is out of town. SO here is the yummy recipe.
Tator tot casserole:
1 regular bag of tator tots
Meat ( I used polish sausage, but any type of meat you have on hand would work)
1-2 cups of grated cheese
1 cup of milk
I used my smaller crock pot, spray the pot with oil. put a layer of tator tots, meat, and cheese. Then add another layer and put a little extra cheese, then pour a cup of milk over the stuff. Put on low for 4 hours then high for an hour (the high gets the potatoes crispy). Then enjoy.
I called the kids on my lunch and they were enjoying this nice yummy dish. It made me happy that I was able to provide a yummy meal while I was at work. I felt like supermom for a moment. They even saved me some for when I got home, and yes it was very yummy. They want this on the regular menu list.
Another hit!!!!
I will work on more recipes. Sorry there aren't any pictures because the first the kids ate it before I could get pictures, and secondly it seems to make it more of a chore to take pictures, so bear with me, pictures may come along or they may not :)
