Beautiful Mama! 💝 She continues to teach through her son, Kent.

Goodmorning Kent, as a black gentleman from Texas, I do want to see a black cowboy enjoying your food and your funny yet wholesome rants. That will fill my heart with joy. Thats america in its purest. After a hard day of work, people of all colors and creed coming together and enjoying a meal. We need it especially today. They trying to divide us so bad, there's talk of civil war 2. We need to unplug from iphones and internet and go back to the basics, eat the food we grow on our land with star spangled banner hoisted high on our camps

I make this recipe very often for my large family. I put it into flour tortillas into burritos, then I toast up the burrito in my cast iron skillet. Sometimes if I make it for breakfast, I'll add in scrambled eggs. This is such a wonderful frugal recipe. Thank you for posting it up.

One of my favorite meals ever. Sometimes mixed green beans in before the cheese

when i was a kid, my mom (sometimes with me helping) use to make this casserole. Since my mom wasn't too big a fan of using ground beef, she used ground turkey. The cheeses we used were both cheddar and Monterey jack. Every once in a while, we would add green beans and corn into it or as a side. We always set it up similar to how you layer lasagna. It was always meat, sauce, cheese and tator tots in that order. Kent is right. The tator tots must be front and center. Even though we cooked it in the biggest casserole dish we have, there was hardly any leftovers. Every one always went back for seconds. Thank you for bringing back some good childhood memories. Now i gotta go and dig out that casserole dish.

Will need milk. 2 lbs breakfast sausage, ground 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or your own choice) Cook sausage till done. Do not drain grease entirely. Make country gravy via instructions, using sausage oil left behind. Mix together gravy and sausage when done. Spray non-stick spray in large rectangular cake pan Layer tots along bottom of pan Pour gravy and sausage over tots Cover with cheese or layer between tots and sausage gravy then on top.

Oh man! Tater Tot Hot Dish in a Dutch oven over coals. Mmmm Mmm MMMM!!! I am going to make this for my 87 year old Mom!!! Mine will be with Chef John mushroom gravy and Kent Rollins seasoning. Nothing but the best!! Here in Minnesota we skip the cheese. But I will add some sour cream and Worcestershire for flavor.

I love the breakfast version. Gonna have to give this one a try now.
