Equipment

  • 9"x13" Casserole Dish
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Wooden spoon or spatula
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons
  • Oven mitts
  • Cheese Grater (ifnot using pre-shredded cheese)

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs Tater tots
  • 1 can sour cream (16 oz)
  • ½ oz condensed cream
  • 2 onions large
  • 8 oz yellow cheddar cheese
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp seasoning salt
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese
  • 3 cups Corn Flakes
  • 1 tbsp paprika
  • ½ cup melted butter

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven - Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures even baking and a golden finish.
  • Grease Your Baking Dish - Lightly grease a 9"x13" casserole dish with a touch of olive oil or butter to prevent sticking.
  • Mix the Main Ingredients - In a large bowl, combine the thawed tater tots, sour cream, condensed cream of chicken soup, chopped onions, garlic powder, seasoning salt, and half of the melted butter. Stir until well mixed.
  • Layer in the Casserole Dish - Transfer the mixture into your prepared dish, spreading it evenly.
  • Prepare the Crunchy Topping - In a separate bowl, toss the cornflakes with the remaining melted butter until coated. Sprinkle this over the casserole.
  • Add the Cheese & Paprika - Top the casserole with parmesan cheese, followed by a dusting of paprika for color and extra flavor.
  • Bake to Perfection - Place the casserole in the oven and bake for 45–60 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown on top.
  • Serve & Enjoy! - Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and pair with your favorite sides.

Tips

Here are some simple yet helpful tips to make your casserole the best it can be:
  • Use Fresh or Frozen Onions: Pre-chopped frozen onions work in a pinch and save time.
  • Low-Fat Swaps: Substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream for a lighter version.
  • Try Different Cheeses: Mix cheddar with mozzarella or pepper jack for extra depth.
  • Don’t Overbake: Keep an eye on it—too long in the oven and it may dry out.
  • Let It Rest: Allow the casserole to cool slightly before slicing to keep its shape.
