Simply the Best (Sorry to All the Others) Tater-Tot Hotdish

• 1 pound Ground Beef
• 1/2 whole Onion, Chopped (yellow Or White)
• 1/2 whole Red Bell Pepper, Seeded And Chopped
• 1 can (10.75 Oz. Can) Cream Of Broccoli Soup
• 1/4 cups Milk
• 2 dashes Worcestershire Sauce
• 1/4 cups Chili Sauce
• 1/2 packages Dry Onion Soup
• 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
• 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
• 2 teaspoons Cayenne Pepper, Or To Taste (optional)
• 1- 1/2 cup Sharp Cheddar, Shredded, Divided
• 3/4 cups Frozen Peas
• 1 whole Carrot, Diced
• 8- 3/4 ounces, weight Corn (smaller Can)
• 3/4 cups Green Beans, Chopped To 1" Pieces
• 32 ounces, weight Tator Tots

1. Preheat oven to 375F.
2. Brown ground beef and onion in a large skillet; add red bell pepper just a few minutes before ground beef is done.
3. Drain any excess grease.
4. Add soup, milk, Worcestershire sauce, chili sauce, dry onion soup mix, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and 1 cup cheese.
5. Mix thoroughly.
6. Stir in peas, carrots, corn, and green beans.
7. Transfer to a casserole baking dish.
8. (I prefer 8 or 9 square, but any size will be fine.
9. When mixture is more spread out, it will cook faster, but the ratio to the potatoes will be the same.)
10. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup cheese over the mixture.
11. Top with Tater-tots.
12. I like to lay them in nice even rows, usually a few have to be laid vertically to use up the whole bag.
13. Bake at 375F until filling is bubbling, usually about 35 minutes for an 8 square dish.
14. Turn up to broil for a few minutes if you like crispy potatoes on top, but watch closelythey will finish fast.
