Venison Tater Tot Casserole (Or Use Ground Beef) image

My husband hunts ALOT, so we have tons of ground venison on hand in the freezer. I use it in everything most people use ground beef for. This recipe is one of my kids' favorites. What kid doesn't like tater tots?!? Us adults like it too.

This casserole was a bit too rich for my taste. I think I'll try making it with a lighter cheese next time.

I'm not a fan of tater tots, but I really liked this casserole. The venison and cheese were a great combination.

This casserole was just okay. I think I would have liked it better if I had used ground beef instead of venison.

I've made this casserole several times now and it's always a success. It's a great way to use up leftover venison.

This casserole was a disaster! The tater tots were soggy and the meat was dry. I won't be making this again.

I'm not a big fan of venison, but this casserole was surprisingly good. The tater tots and cheese really helped to mellow out the flavor.

This casserole was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.

I made this casserole with ground beef instead of venison and it was still really good. The cheese and tater tots made it a real crowd-pleaser.
