28 oz. bag frozen tater tots
10.5 oz. can condensed cream of mushroom soup (undiluted - do not add water), or use cheddar cheese soup or celery soup instead.
1½ cups frozen peas and carrots thaw and remove excess moisture, omit, sub for frozen green beans, or use all 3
½ cup milk
1½ cups freshly shredded cheddar cheese
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce divided
1 lb. lean ground beef
1 small onion diced
1½ tsp regular Mrs. Dash seasoning
¼ tsp pepper
¼ tsp kosher salt
diced fresh scallions for serving

Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 3-quart rectangular baking dish with nonstick spray. Arrange half the bag of tater tots on the bottom in an even layer. Bake for 12 minutes, then smash down with the bottom of a drinking glass to cover the bottom of the dish.
In a bowl, whisk together the mushroom soup, peas and carrots, milk, ½ cup cheese, and half of the Worcestershire sauce until combined.
In the meantime, brown the beef and onion in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, breaking up the meat into tiny crumbles until no pink remains, about 5 minutes. Drain off the grease. Add in the remaining Worcestershire sauce and all the seasonings; stir to combine.
Spread beef mixture evenly over the mashed tater tots.
Pour soup mixture evenly over the beef mixture.
Top the casserole with the remaining frozen tater tots from the bag.
Bake for 30 minutes, then sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup shredded cheese. Return to the oven and bake another 5 to 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and taters are golden brown.
Sprinkle with the diced scallions before serving.
