Sloppy Joe Tater Tot Casserole

Tater tots are such a comfort food for me. Anytime I see a recipe involving them I always give it a look. There is a saying "Everything taste better with bacon.". Well, I am starting to think the same thing about tater tots, everything taste better with tater tots. I have used tater tots in many casseroles and they always make the casserole better.

This casserole includes ingredients for making homemade sloppy joe's. It uses simple ingredients, that you probably have in your kitchen right now. However, if you already have a favorite sloppy joe recipe you could use that instead or you could even use the dry mix or can mix.
