Tater Tot Casserole from "Feeding the Flock FUMC Marshall, TX"

This is easy and it is good.

1lb. ground beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 can Cream of Mushroom soup
1 bag tater tots
1 tsp minced garlic
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 to 2 cups shredded chedder cheese

Brown the meat with the onion and garlic, add salt and pepper then drain the fat off the beef. Mix the drained meat with the Cream of Mushroom soup. Place in a baking dish. Top the meat with the tater tots. Bake at 350 degrees for 55 minutes. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese on top. Cook an additional 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted.

I served this with Aunt C's Asparagus. Have a pot of boiling water. Cut a little off the bottom of the asparagus. Remove the spikes.O you can make them like Julia Child's and peel the tough skin off with a potato peeler, be careful not to peel too much off. Once the asparagus is preped, put it into the boiling water until it is just barly soft. Take the asparagus out of the boiling water and put it into cold water with ice, this will make it stop cooking and make it crisp. Take the asparagus out of the cold water, sprinkle with lemon juice and kosher salt to taste.
