I really think you’re going to love it. In honor of this recipe going live today, I’m probably going to defrost some TTHD for dinner tonight because, life is just better when crispy, warm, straight-from-the-oven tater tots are involved, am I right? It’s also meal-prep and freezer friendly and made up of familiar, comfort-food flavors that everyone seems to enjoy (Even picky eaters can’t resist this one!) My version of #TTHD really checks all the boxes too: Easy enough for a weeknight dinner? Yep! Comforting and cozy? Yup! Hearty, satisfying, and packed with plant-based protein? Yes, yes, yes! I asked a lot of ( probably annoying 😬) questions to make sure that I was keeping my version as close to the OG as possible, and tested this hot dish ( casserole) recipe until I finally came up with a vegan version that is as richly flavorful and hearty as it is extremely easy to make! My version, now vegan-a-fied and amped up with flavorful roasted root vegetables smothered in a silky cashew cream sauce, is the result of many back-and-forth conversations with the same friend I referenced above about the dish we now fondly refer to as #TTHD ( tater tot hot dish) And although this theory has not been authenticated, my feeling is that this midwestern specialty is a distant relative of Shepard’s Pie and the like.

The mixture is then transferred to a baking dish and topped with copious amounts of tater tots and baked until golden brown. The traditional, non-vegan version, is typically made by mixing seasoned ground beef with canned peas, corn, and green beans, and tossing it together with a condensed cream of mushroom soup.

Tater Tot Casserole – or Tater Tot Hot Dish as my friend who hails from Minnesota calls it – is every bit as delicious as it sounds 😋
