Cheesy, Broccoli Tator Tot Casserole

Hello everyone! I haven't posted any recipes in a long time....gotta lot of catching up to do! This casserole is so easy and it usually goes over pretty well with kids. It even has mushroom soup in it...but they won't know! As a new parent I have come to learn the joy of hiding healthy foods into meals.

Ingredients: 1 lb. ground beef
                    1 can of cream of mushroom soup
                   Bag of tator tots
                   Fresh Broccoli, chopped
                   Package of shredded mozzarella cheese


   The cheese could have probably been melted a little bit more, but I was STARVING at the time and couldn't wait! :)

Directions:  So first just brown your meat and drain the grease. While you are doing that, boil the water for your broccoli and cook until tender. Then, drain it and set aside. Add the cream of mushroom soup to the meat. Lightly grease a 9x13 pan and pour the meat/soup mixture into the pan. Then, spread the cooked broccoli over it, then the next layer is the cheese. (only use 1/2 of the package)
  Then, just dump the whole package of tator tots on top. Bake at 375 for about 20 minutes. Then sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top and bake it an additonal 5-10 minutes or until the cheese is melted...or in my case...until you can't take it anymore and you just gotta eat!

Servings: It's so hard for me to figure the servings out because I think my family eats more than the average household! haha..we're hungry! but I would say like 4-6 people.
