Divine Dinner: How My Grandma Found The Recipe That Made My Brother Eat Again

tater tot hotdish

Tater tot hotdish is a classic casserole that was served at my church during potluck suppers for decades.

Take a look at what my friend Audrey from the Melady Cooks food blog had to say about this magnificent recipe:

I served the hotdish with a simple lettuce salad and we were very pleased with our comfort food. Some people drizzle ketchup over it (my brothers did) but it’s great as is. I do prefer to sort of mash it all together with my fork so I get a mouthful that includes all of the ingredients.

I love those serving suggestions, Audrey! I eat ketchup on a lot of things such as scrambled eggs and meatloaf so I’m sure I’ll enjoy it over this tater tot hotdish.
