Broccoli Ham and Cheese Tater Tot Casserole

You may be from the midwest if this title made your mouth water… Broccoli Ham and Cheese Tater Tot Casserole is my take on the classic midwestern dish. I got loads of requests to share this recipe on my instagram @Chef.Carly, so here it is! A creamy bed of veggies and ham topped with crispy crunchy tater tots makes the best weeknight dinner. This stick-to-your-ribs recipe is ultimate comfort food. And it’s super easy to make, so let’s get cooking!

Ingredients:

1 bag frozen tater tots
1 family sized can cream of mushroom soup
½ cup sour cream
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups broccoli florets
2 cups cauliflower florets
2 cups diced ham
1 T onion powder
1 t garlic powder
1 T worcestershire sauce

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. 

In a medium bowl, add cauliflower, broccoli, and ¼ cup water and cover with plastic wrap. Microwave for 3 minutes until veggies are a bit tender. Remove plastic wrap. 

Add in ham, soup, sour cream, onion powder, garlic powder, and worcestershire sauce. Stir well to combine. 


Spray a 9×13” pan with pan spray. Pour mixture into the pan and spread out evenly in the dish. Sprinkle 2 cups of cheddar cheese evenly over the mixture. Layer tatertots evenly over the casserole, you may not use all the tater tots. Spray with pan spray and sprinkle with a little garlic powder, if desired. 

Bake for 20-30 minutes with a sheet pan on the rack below to catch any drips. Broil for 5 minutes if necessary. Casserole is done when tatertots are golden and crispy and the casserole is bubbling. Let cool a few minutes and serve. Enjoy!
