Tater Tot Hot Dish
The Minnesota dish that launched a thousand church basements. Ground beef, cream of celery, tater tots. Comfort food with no apologies. I was so hesitant to try this when I moved here. It just seemed blasphemous. And, it is. In a good way. Just make one. You'll see. Feel free to add diced jalapenos or anything else you have laying around. This recipe is just a base.
