Poor (Wo)man's cottage pie

I am always looking for quick and easy, but somewhat healthy meals that the kids will eat.  Kenny is still super picky and won't eat a vegetable at all, but I keep offering and hopefully that will change.  Loralei still eats whatever you put in front of her and this was no exception.
Here is a quick and easy take on Cottage Pie (Shepard's pie is made with lamb, Cottage pie is beef)

Ingredients:

1/2 bag frozen tater tots
1/2 bag of frozen corn
1/2 bag of frozen green beans  * use whatever frozen veggies you want*
1 can cream of celery soup
1 lb ground beef
1/2 cup of milk
1 cup cheddar cheese

Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • brown beef and drain.  I seasoned with minced garlic and onion powder
  • Pour beef into 8x8 pan
  • Mix can of soup and milk in bowl and pour over beef
  • Top beef mixture with frozen veggies
  • top veggies with a layer of cheddar cheese
  • top with tater tot
  • sprinkle a bit more cheese over the top
  • bake in oven for 45 minutes
