“This is a versatile recipe designed to use up leftover meatloaf in a tasty one-dish meal. Frozen tater tots, onions and vegetables are coated in a sour cream/condensed soup sauce with meatloaf pieces pressed into the surface. A cheese topping keeps the meatloaf moist during cooking and adds crispness, but ketchup or french-fried onions could also be used.” - by layla_y

Directions

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Combine the cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, seasoned salt, and pepper. Stir in the mixed vegetables and onion. Add the tater tots and stir until they are coated with the mixture. Pour into the prepared baking dish. Press the meatloaf slices into the top of the tater tot mixture.
Bake in preheated oven 15 minutes; sprinkle the Cheddar cheese over the top, and bake 35 minutes until the cheese browns. Remove from the oven and let stand 10 minutes before serving.

"This is as comforting as meatloaf and mashed potatoes. I usually make mini meatloaves topped with ketsup and bacon. Mmm I still have to slice them to go on top. I didn't change anything in the recipe...." See more It was so so good. Perfectly creamy, not mushy, meatloaf was still moist, and the leftovers reheated well. My husband (super picky eater) and 21mo. Old son LOVE it. Try it, you will not be disappointed! It's like the most comforting cafeteria food(in a good way, like back in the day when the food quality standards were higher) that tastes just the way you would expect. I can't say enough JUST MAKE IT!"

"Overall not a bad recipe. All the ingredients are well liked in the house hold however, the family didn't vote this one as a keeper. I think country style hash browns instead of tater tots might have..." See more made for a more moist consistency. *I might sneak this one back in the menu with a few adjustment!"

"I followed this recipe to a T, as I had leftover meatloaf and tater tots to "take care of." It was delightfully tasty (for me, my husband and the kids), and put a new twist on those ingredients so th..." See moreat it didn't taste like leftovers at all. The only thing I may alter next time is the cooking time. I only needed to cook it for about 35 minutes total, as the cheese got too hard on top. Note: This is also a heavier meal, so serve it up with some light side items like salad or apple sauce, etc. YUM!"
