Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 pound ground turkey or beef
  • 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 bag (32 ounces) frozen tater tots
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. Boil the diced sweet potatoes until tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Drain well.
  3. While potatoes boil, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion until soft.
  4. Add the ground meat to the skillet. Cook until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
  5. In a large bowl, mix the cooked meat, cream of mushroom soup, milk, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir in the cooked sweet potatoes.
  6. Spread this mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  7. Arrange the frozen tater tots in a single layer over the meat and sweet potato mixture.
  8. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the tots are golden brown.
  9. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the tater tots. Bake for another 5 to 10 minutes, until the cheese melts and bubbles.
  10. Let the casserole rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute cream of chicken soup if you prefer.
  • For extra flavor, add 1/2 cup of frozen peas and carrots with the meat mixture.
  • Ensure the sweet potatoes are completely tender before mashing or mixing.
