Taco Tater Tot Casserole

I came up with this for dinner tonight.

1 pound ground beef, browned and drained
3 to 4 tbs Taco Seasoning
1 cup water
1/2 to 1 cup salsa, your choice
8 oz frozen corn, thawed
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
2 cups mexican style four cheese blend (without the seasoning)
1 pound tater tots

Preheat oven to 425

Brown and drain your ground beef.  Stir in the taco seasoning, water and salsa.   Add the corn and black beans and cook until hot and bubbly.

Place meat/corn and black bean mixture in the bottom of a 9x13 pan. 

Sprinkle 1 cup of the cheese over the meat.

Place tater tots ontop of the cheese.

Bake for 30 minutes.

Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of cheese over the tots and broil until cheese is melted and getting a bit brown.  Tater tots should be nice and crispy by then.
