  12. Bake the casserole for about 25 minutes, until the tater tots are crispy and fabulous.
  13. Options: A small/medium onion and about 3 cloves of garlic can be browned with the meat instead of using the powdered version.
  14. Its a matter of your convenience.
  15. When I use ground turkey in this recipe, Ill saute some button or crimini mushrooms with spinach and roasted red peppers, and use Monterey Jack cheese.
  16. The sky is really the limit when it comes to variations.
