When I think of freezer meals I automatically go back to all the great casseroles my mom made when I was a kid and Tater Tot Casserole was one of the most commonly made meals in our home.  This version of the classic dish is a simple and satisfying meal the entire family will love.  Make ahead and freeze for easy freezer to oven meals or serve same day for a hearty meal your kids will be begging you to make more often.  I love this dish because it takes advantage of a lot of items I already pick up for cheap or free using coupons.

This yummy Tater Tot Casserole is one of our favorite freezer meals because it is so easy to mix up a double or triple batch of the meat mixture and layer with tater tots in disposable aluminum pans for freezing and simple reheating.  If you freeze this meal for future use, make sure to label appropriately.  If stored in an aluminum pan cover with plastic wrap and aluminum foil to seal properly and label well.  This meal lasts for up to 4 months in the freezer.  To heat, simply remove plastic wrap/foil/lid and place in oven at 350 degrees for 45 minutes to 1 hour.

I will be posting 10 Days of Freezer Meal Recipes and today is Day 4! See more Freezer Recipes HERE and be sure to read my Easy Tips to Freezer Meal Cooking/Planning post here to get started.

    I am making this or something very similar for a swap of meals. I am using throw away tins so its easier but I am curious if I cook in throw away trays first is it okay to than freeze in same tray and people who receive them to rewarm in same tin? I will be giving away 6 meals ( for a family of 4 to 5) and keeping one for myself. I reallly like tater tot casserole and your seasonings sound like it may make it even tastier, I noticed my last one was bland. Hope you can help! thanks

    I added frozen sweet corn kernels and some fresh minced garlic in addition to the powder. I also used tater rounds rather than tots, definitely cooked quicker.

    Do I have to thaw it before baking it if I froze it? Or can I just throw it in the oven for an hour from the freezer?
