Instructions to make Southwest Tatertot Casserole:

  2. Brown ground beef in large pan until done.
  3. Add Taco Seasoning to the beef & follow packet directions.
  4. Add cheese soup to taco meat & mix well.
  5. Add the vegetables to the taco meat & mix well. Turn burner off after everything is mixed together, even if cold.
  6. Spread the taco meat mixture onto the bottom of a non-stick cake pan, spreading it out evenly.
  7. Add the uncooked frozen tatertot's laying them out on top of the taco mixture. I make rows of tatertot's so they are neat & even. That way they get more crunchy & cook evenly.
  8. Put into the oven for 45 minutes or until the tatertot's are cooked thoroughly.
  9. Add about 2 cups of shredded Cheese on top of the tatertot's evenly & drain olives & add those as well. (I used cheddar cheese). Then broil for 4-5 minutes in oven or until cheese is slightly browned.
  10. Top with sour cream & chopped green onions and enjoy!!!
